00:01 pdurbin he talks a fair amount about performance in that episode. well worth the listen
00:06 prologic sure I'll have a read and listen :)
00:07 prologic I'm of course very sceptical of a lot of these sorts of things
00:07 prologic because we all write really bad code sometimes
00:07 prologic even i :)
00:35 pdurbin yeah
01:20 aditsu I never write bad code, it only looks bad in retrospect :D
01:23 pdurbin :)
01:23 pdurbin the time pressure stuff is real
01:23 pdurbin gotta ship
01:24 pdurbin comic book artists suffer from time pressure as well. no time to draw perfectly. just get it done
01:24 pdurbin good enough
01:24 pdurbin kinda sad, but what can you do
01:25 pdurbin better to ship suboptimal code than never ship
01:40 prologic haha
01:40 prologic yeah there are ofc a lot of factors
02:02 pdurbin hearing good things about this talk: Raymond Hettinger - Beyond PEP 8 -- Best practices for beautiful intelligible code - PyCon 2015 - YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wf-BqAjZb8M

16:45 sivoais prologic: where would you put Perl on the lazy scale?
16:45 sivoais :-P
16:46 sivoais ah, or sloppy
16:49 pdurbin perl has a strong testing culture at least
16:50 pdurbin http://stats.cpantesters.org
20:58 prologic sivoais, lol I'd put it up on the not lazy at all :)
20:58 prologic you have to work really hard to write Perl
20:58 prologic because it's so god damn unreadable :)
20:58 prologic haha
23:48 pdurbin at least perl doesn't attract fanboys :)
