+1 for "There are more things that deliver value than deploying newly implemented features." Too many Devs I meet are focussed on [coding] the new stuff and [try to] ignore anything and everything else!Phill W.– Phill W.2022-11-18 07:06:54 +00:00Commented Nov 18, 2022 at 7:06

1not just devs. Several times I've seen entire processes built around the assumption everything is code that goes to prod, and developers are essentially graded only on shipping code. Developers apparently never write implementation plans, documentation, prototype, research libraries to use, or prepare a knowledge transfers.Ryathal– Ryathal2022-11-18 14:13:00 +00:00Commented Nov 18, 2022 at 14:13

Definitely has to do with what devs are rewarded for. I find the average attention span of the present-day dev to also play a factor. In certain cases it can digress to be just a copy/paste race in a team -- find that perfect niche YT video/blog that shows exactly what to copy/paste for your problem before your colleagues do, just do it (don't reason as to the merits, approach, risks) & if it works, cool -- pat oon the back for you, on to the next one.Alex Constantin– Alex Constantin2023-08-08 12:48:55 +00:00Commented Aug 8, 2023 at 12:48

How to Format
-
create code fences with backticks ` or tildes ~
```
like so
``` -
add language identifier to highlight code
```python
def function(foo):
print(foo)
``` - put returns between paragraphs
- for linebreak add 2 spaces at end
- _italic_ or **bold**
- indent code by 4 spaces
- backtick escapes
`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line
- to make links (use https whenever possible)
<https://example.com>[example](https://example.com)<a href="https://example.com">example</a>
How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
