Snapshot tests suck. That's a test that stores the dom (or I guess any json serializable thing) and when you run the test again, compares what you have now to what it has saved.

No one is going to carefully examine a 300 line json diff. They're just going to say "well I updated the file so it makes sense it changed" and slap the update button.

Theoretically you could only feed it very small things, but if that's the case you could also just assert on what's important yourself.

Snapshots don't encode intent. They make everything look just as important as everything else. And then hotshot developers think they have 100% coverage

Efficient code beats easy code, regardless of resources.

Commercial providers for space programs cost more money than if NASA just hired civil servants to do a lot of the work. Big corps just take longer, then don't want to share development info that taxpayers funded, making integration into other elements a huge safety problem that can't be fully resolved due to the protection of the provider's intellectual property.

Then they get shit workers that put up with job instability caused by a fickle Congress. This has gotten progressively worse for decades, and now NASA is reduced to a corporate subsidy program for parasitic billionaires and huge companies that don't deliver well. Nothing like someone asking me if a design will function properly with another, and me basically saying I have no fucking clue because everything is a goddamn secret.

NASA's commercial provider obsession was bought by lobbyists, and it's a fucking terrible idea. I'll die on that hill.

Technisation and standardisation are good for the EMS sector.

The whole "it was better when we could do what we want and back then we had only real calls with sicker people and everything was good" is fucking aweful and hurting the profession.

Look, you fucking volunteer dick, I know you do this for 10 years longer than me (and I do it for 25 now),but unlike you I did it full-time and probably had more shifte in one year than you had in your life. Now my back is fucked because back then there was no "electrohydraulic stretcher", no stair chair, the ventilator was twice as heavy (and could basically nothing), the defibrillator weighted so much we often had to switch carrying it after two floors up.

And we had just as many shit calls,but got actually attacked worse because the shit 2kg radios were shit and had next to zero coverage indoors, and so had cellphones which led to you being unable to even call for backup.

And of course we had longer shifts,needed to work more hours and the whole job market was even more fucked.

"But we didn't need this and that,we looked at the patient". Yeah,go fuck yourself. MUCH more people died or took damage from that. So many things were not seen. And it was all accepted as "yeah, that's how life is".

So fuck everyone in this field and their nostalgia.

Don’t fucking paste content from a word doc into your IDE. Some people I work with think it’s a time saver.

Abilify is a beautiful long term maintenance med but wholly inappropriate for an acutely agitated and combative patient.

Take the time to do it right the first time but also don't waste time if it doesn't add value.

Having a process is great but if the process exceeds the value then the process not only harms profit margins but also erodes morale. If the reason a process exists is to counter bad behavior then it's an employee problem not a process problem.

Open office floorplans are a terrible idea!

Work from home shouldn't be considered a given based on the job tasks but a privilege and benefit extended to those employees that have shown the discipline and reliability to work from home. But the in office requirement shouldn't be forced on everyone just to satisfy a "butts in seat policy" or a managers insecurity.
