a (tile-placing) guy who was rebuilding my bathrooms, told this story: when he was greener, he happened to work with some old fart... who managed to work 10x faster than others, with this trick: put all the tiles on the wall with a diluted cement-glue very quick, then moving one tile forces most other tiles around to move as well.. so he managed to order all the tiles in very short time. As i never had the luxury of decent budget, since long time ago i was doing various meta-programming things, then meta-meta-programming.. up to extent of say, 2 people building and managing and enjoying a codebase of 100KLOC (python) + 100KLOC js... ~~30% generated static and unknown %% generated-at-runtime - without too much fuss or overwork. But it seems that this road has been a dead end... for decades. Less and less people use meta-programming, it needs too deep understanding ; everyone just adds yet-another (2y "senior") junior/wanna-be to copy-paste yet another crud. So maybe the number of wanna-bees will go down.
Or "senior" would start meaning something.. again.
Or idiotically-numbing-stoopid requirements will stop appearing.. |
