Michael Hartle<p>Any software that is so hostile and riddled with side-effects that safe refactoring steps by Martin Fowlers <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Refactoring" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Refactoring</span></a> are the only option left to get anything done is basically a <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/RubeGoldbergMachine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RubeGoldbergMachine</span></a> and has long ceased to be "reason"-able.</p><p>To have a codebase which is aligned with a consistent mental model from a minimal number of orthogonal concepts that allows everyone to reason about the software and how to change it consistently is underestimated and priceless.</p>

Theo<p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://mastodon.online/@arialdo" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>arialdo</span></a></span> i think the problem is that it's very hard to showcase a nice workflow change that applies to many.</p><p>IMO <a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>emacs</span></a> strength comes from one point:</p><p>You use it as is until it annoys you enough. Either you then leave it right there and then or you realize you can change that small annoyance by writing a couple of lines. Rinse and repeat. Suddenly you love that little <a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/rubegoldbergmachine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rubegoldbergmachine</span></a> you just made.</p><p>That endurance part is the problem and solution. I guess you just have to be that kind of person for it to stick. My init.el gets fewer and fewer lines and packages every day.</p>
