@impactology 2/ What defines bad quality code, and why is it considered poor?Bad code isn't just code that has bugs. It's code that actively resists being understood, modified, or trusted.It's Brittle: A small change requires a huge effort. You try to fix one thing, and two other things break.It's Opaque: It's impossible for a new team member to understand what the code is doing without weeks of archaeology.

@impactology 3/ Why do top-tier consultants succeed where others can't?I apprenticed under two superior consultants.They took at least three semesters of accounting and can read a chart of accounts. They have an unwavering commitment to rigorous code reviews and clean architecture.They can spot how shortcuts create technical debt.They can articulate why a "slower" approach now will save millions in the long run. They get buy-in for doing things the right way.

@impactology 4. What prevents good code or perpetuates bad code?This is almost always organizational, not technical.Misaligned Incentives: The business rewards shipping features quickly above all else. There is no reward for stability, maintainability, or code quality. Developers are forced to take shortcuts to meet deadlines.Lack of Psychological Safety: Developers are afraid to say "no" or "this will take longer to do it right."

@impactology 5/5 Knowledge Silos (The "Bus Factor"): Critical knowledge is held by one or two senior people. When they leave, the team is left with a complex system they are afraid to touch.The "Broken Windows" Theory: Shit code breeds more shit codeIn essence, bad code happens when short-term urgency eclipses long-term thinking. Good code is the result of treating software development as a professional engineering discipline, not just a frantic race to a deadline.

@tomjennings @GrimmReality So stipulated. The chip must not be contaminated with ersatz flavorings. Two exceptions occur, yea three alone are worthy:The cheeto molecule, though it be not cheese, is acceptable.The Mexican hot sauce, with chopped onion, is acceptableSour cream and onion, the way the Pringle of that name is made.

@BrodieOnLinux Rewrite git in Rust entirely. Any other scheme is madness at this point

@thomas_klopf Can't argue with that. The Dems had seen wisdom and started to get serious about racism - so in response, the GOP opened their back porch door to let in the KKK

@thomas_klopf Since Citizen United and the 501(c)(4), every Congress Critter has been reduced to whoredom. There may be a few exceptions: Bernie Sanders is one.Old Barney Frank used to say "If they put up a little sign in the Rose Garden, reading 'The line to fellate POTUS starts here, half of Washington would be lined up service him"

@futurebird Practically every village in Britain (to the exclusion of Wales and Scotland) is of Saxon or Danish origin. Welsh place names were established to give the British fits.

@Nonilex @RichRARobi Of course, we're also talking about a justice system where POTUS is openly taking bribes - and nothing is being done about that.What's a murder between friends?
