  • Push directly to master, not main
  • No command line args, just change the global const and recompile
  • No env vars either
  • Port numbers only go up to 5280, the number of feet in a mile
  • All auth is just a password; tokens are minority developers, not auth, and usernames are identity politics
  • No hashes – it's the gateway drug to fentanyl
  • No imports. INTERNAL DEVELOPERS FIRST
  • Exceptions are now illegal and therefore won't occur, so no need to check for them
  • SOAP/XML APIs only
  • No support for external machines. If it's good enough for my machine, it's good enough for yours.

Ah, I see you've met C++ developers.

Nah, don't use global variables, magic values everywhere. And don't use const whatsoever, we need to move fast and break things, we can't let something immutable stop us

What about internationalization – do the European port numbers go up to the cm or only meter count within a kilometer?
