Today's comiCSS:

cartoon titled Summer at the Venns' House. It has two ice cream cones that overlap in a way that looks like a venn diagram

write the documentation first
write the tests second
write the comments third
write the code

And when the code is written and it works, all the other stuff is broken.

my experience following this model is that wind up with far better insight into what i have to write and how i should go about it.

writing the documentation defines the spec
writing the tests determine if it will work
writing the comments helps layout the implementation (far easier to refactor comments than code)
once that's done, the actual code usually just falls into place.

It really depends on the domain you're working on.

If the app have to go inside a very complicated system of other apps and handle data records that can changed just few days before the end of development you can just update the code and then the other stuff.

It's true, but not for every programmer. IMHO it's as fun as coding.

If you don't like it (or are lazy, or don't have time) you should use sw like FastAPI, which at least makes you want to add some docs tightly coupled with the code.

yeah, its crazy, lady is speaking reasonably about the incidence of sexual assault and how that's bad. when i first saw it, i was expecting her to be haranguing some guy about nothing.

I think this is something you've gotta be careful about with memes, especially in more professional settings. Their semiotics are never completely straightforward, and we need to think about all the ways what we say can be read.

True, but i think the pyramids are powered by the Pharaoh's wisdom which is connected to the divine, kinda like an AI powered program.

To be fair, it took them decades.

... Which means they probably had Teams.
