I see this so often. It's how terrible software is written because people are afraid to change direction or learn anything new mid project.
I rewrite most of my code 2-3 times before I'm done and I'm still 5x faster than anyone else, and significantly higher quality and maintainability as well. People spend twice as long writing the ugliest, hackiest code as they would have to just learn to do it right
You can hash them without a salt and store them in a set of passwords not associated to user accounts to enforce uniqueness without having to actually know the passwords
>I feel the major issue with excel (and other stuff such as CSS) is that one learns by cobbling things together and never through a formal process.
This is literally all programming, and it's not necessarily a bad thing. As long as you keep learning and don't just keep doing the same cobbled together mess for years and years
Using a non rolling release distro as a desktop makes 0 sense. You're holding off on upgrades, forcing 1 gigantic upgrade at once that will never be tested. Do you have a dev or staging environment for your desktop upgrades? Why not do small incremental updates all the time?
It's totally fair. If you're going to be intentionally ambiguous just because it's technically correct, we can just assume you're an asshole and extrapolate from there
>After 160 years of the same political party fighting to rebuild racism
Is this serious comment? There was nothing that happened in the parties in the 1960s? Maybe 1964? All of a sudden the people in the south just suddenly decided to no longer be racist, and joined the Republican party fighting _against_ racism?
