Kubernetes isn’t a great example of you can just read it like a document. The resource kind jargon is huge.

Most compose files are small and use familiar linux jargon.

I can give an non-dev IT person a compose file and they can understand every key. I can’t do that with K8s or Quadlet.

I like to think most seniors know to not blindly follow DRY. However, I can tell many of us are uncomfortable with the idea of needing to maintain multiple duplicated sources of code.

To help with that, I think the simple model of two callers depending on a common code needs to be scrutinized. If the common code needs to change because only one of the caller needs it, then it doesn’t belong in the common.

The wrong goal for DRY is attempting to do it with encapsulation. Encapsulation shifts the refactoring work from the caller to the common code. However this is not what you want because there’s a lot more consequence in updating the common code than the caller.

You can avoid encapsulation and still be DRY by having multiple thin abstractions that the caller needs to be aware about is better. In OOP you are taught SRP and IoC for this. In procedural programming, this just comes naturally as code calling series of helper functions.

This assumes the bug exists in both places which might not be true at all even if they both are dependent on the same duplicated code.

If you only spot the bug in path A and not path B, why fix the bug for B?

You could still have security bumps happening (like dependabot).

GTD has the addition that you must create a system of reminders/followups. GTD is great to practice being okay with forgetting stuff and trusting your tracking system.

I think your argument focuses a lot on the scenario where you already have cleaned data (i.e., data warehouse). I and many other data engineers agree, you're better off with hosting it on SQL RDBMS.

However, before that, you need a lot of code to clean the data and raw data does not fit well into a structured RDBMS. Here you choose to either map your raw data into row view or a table view. You're now left with the choice of either inventing your own domain object (row view) or use a dataframe (table view).

We need long running averages and 2023-2025 is still too early to determine it's not effective. The barriers of entry for 2023 and 2024, I'd argue is too high for inexperienced developers to start churning software. For seasoned developers, the skepticism and company adoption wasn't there yet (and still isn't).

The data is surprising. However, I do wish this article looked carefully into barriers of entry as it can explain the lack of increases in your data.

For example, in Steam, it costs $100 to release a game. You may extend your game with what's called a DLC and that costs $0 to release. If I were to build shovelware with especially with AI-generated content, I'd more keen to make a single game with a bunch of DLC.

For game development, integration of AI into engines is another barrier. There aren't that many choices of engines that gives AI an interface to work with. The obvious interface is games that can be entirely build with code (e.g., pygame; even Godot is a big stretch)

You could either delete the .venv and recreate it or run `uv pip install --upgrade .`

Much prefer not thinking about venvs.

Did you guys considered existing standards when you chose what to use for representing workflow definitions before choosing OpenFlow? For example, Common Workflow Language
