Both are weird compared to Svelte.

I'm coming back, I will return
And I'll possess your daemons and make your CPU burn
I have ring 0, I have your cores
I have the power to make my evil take its course

Well yes, internally that's what it does, but from a user perspective it just looks like being handed the package, you never see any of the failed attempts (unless delivery fails completely because the company went out of business). It's sorta more like having a butler who orders it for you and deals with any potential BS that might happen, and then just hands you the package when it finally arrives in one piece.

It really doesn’t matter. Literally a Raspberry Pi will do for a beginner.

Yes, but mostly because the general population likely isn't super familiar with Bittorrent and PirateBay.

A better, yet similarly correct explanation would be to say GitHub is to Git what GMail is to email.

This also doesn't confuse protocol and content, and it doesn't require knowledge of piracy.

Before this post, I didn't even know it was there. What does it do? I just enabled it but I can't find any difference.

Awesome, makes me happy to be able to contribute.

How do you calculate those numbers though?

It's not like your colleagues will be keeping track of how much time they've wasted writing ineffective code. If anything, they'll try to hide that by arbitrarily inflating sprint points etc.

I've worked in environments like that and the issue almost always isn't that people wouldn't LIKE it if there were tests, it's that they

  1. Don't want to have to learn something new in order to do the same job they're already comfortable with
  2. Are worried that if they convince management to let them invest X amount of time into doing something that will improve productivity, they'll be expected to be more productive in the future

And of course, all of this for no extra money. Unless you work at a place where management prioritzes developer happiness over how many sprint points the team can knock out every week (and those are rare), the sad truth is that it'll likely be about as popular as leftover food growing mold in the community fridge.
