Programming

Don't enforce using the same tech stack on each new project. When customer, domain, environment, requirements etc differ, so might the tool suite, languages, frameworks etc

I find that S-expressions are the best syntax for programming languages. And in general infix operators are inferior to either prefix or postfix notation.

My crazy take is that there needs to be a interpretative language alternative to Python which uses brackets to define scope and/or things like elif/else/fi/end of/done. Much easier that way in my opinion, and the ";" shouldn't be necessary. I'm used to Python, but if I had another language which can be used to serve similar purpose to Python with those features, I would never code in Python again when it comes up.

Having to code in Julia and G'MIC (Domain-Specific Interpretative language that is arguably the most flexible for raster graphics content creation and editing), they're the closest to there, but they're more suitable for their respective domain than generic ones.

Doing this is a hot take, but "clean architecture" is a joke.

My company is obsessed with it.

Mandatory pull requests + approvals within a team are a waste of everyone's time.

DRY means Do Repeat Yourself, when the alternative is cooking up some awful OOP abstraction

learn Haskell, write better code
