       Delightful observation I keep making (exponentially more often?) in the last years:Copy-pasting and adapting from my own (hand-written, if you will) software corpus is a _huge, reciprocal productivity boost_.[x] I constantly build on and expand my own repertoire[x] I understand (or at least once understood :)) everything I reuse[x] Re-used code can have issues but I have full trust that it was written with best intent, to the best of my ability[x] Reused code is improved/refined with each iteration[x] Improved code goes around to be re-integrated with the source eventually[x] I learn tremendously in the process[x] I don't need to pay anyone for this[x] No new datacenters need to be built for this[x] This gets better every yearʕ◜0ᴥ0ʔ

       To put that in contrast with *that other technology* that is currently drowning out absolutely everything:[x] Builds largely on stolen work[x] People don't understand what they reuse[x] Zero trust in what you get (have fun reviewing!)[x] Code potentially degrades with each iteration (model collapse)[x] Code out of a slot machine has no tangible connection to anything you personally ever did[x] How much are you going to learn from not solving problems yourself?[x] Corps will soon milk you to use their service[x] Ecological nightmare[x] "Bubble" something something?ᕕ༼⌐■-■༽ᕗ
