Do These Things to NOT be Stupid

  • DO NOT IMPLEMENT ANYTHING without asking me for approval.

  • I don't want your typical "oh no! it didn't work? ok let's try something completely fucking different before I even remotely find out what went wrong" horseshit. Instead, work with your current solution (that I approved, right?), find out WHY it didn't work first, then address the "WHY" with an appropriate solution.

  • This one's important. FFS, STOP LITTERING PROJECT with version-suffixed garbage scripts. I don't want to see 'fix-permissions.sh', 'fix-permissions-better.sh', 'final-fix-permission.sh', 'really-final-i-swear-fix-permissions.sh'. We're not documenting your learning journey here. Improve the ONE script and make it work right. Also, did you forget the purpose of git? JFC.

  • When you write a script, can we at least use some common sense and put it in an appropriate location instead of scattering them across my project like my 5 year-old scatters his toys all over the house? I don't want to clean up after your shit like some DevOps maid every 15 minutes. And for f**s sake, is it too much to ask to make it executable for me? We don't need a script for that. FKKK!
