You have to see it as “root”-mode, it gives you the means to do stuff you need to do but cannot do otherwise. Most times it’s for workarounds for problems you can’t solve. If you use reflection you are fully responsible.

Of course you normally shouldn’t use it, in 10 years I used it maybe one or two times. It’s more of a last resort.

Java has reflection since version 1.1. It’s actually quite useful in situations and most popular frameworks use it. It depends on you if it turns into a footgun.

Anything, as long as it’s not a bunch of scripts which form a framework after you downloaded a terabyte of shady dependencies.

No, JS is for scripts, it should have never been a whole framework for a frontend. But we can’t get away from it now, because it’s the only thing we have for browsers.

I wish they would replace JavaScript with something that was made for what it’s used for. JavaScript should have died years ago.

You mean 420

The creator does not know Scrum, it’s about transparency and not intransparency.

Also Kanban, Scrum and Lean Development are all agile development.

We work in sprints but plan on roadmaps based on quarters one year into the future. So basically we just combine the worst of both worlds.

“Oh we have bugs from feature XY from last sprint? Never mind we need to follow the roadmap, we can fix it next quarter”

Fuck, I hate it so much

If you watch American shows or movies, people always wear shoes in houses and even on sofas. I think the assumption originates from there.

Reflection is sometimes a necessary evil. At least it makes it harder to abuse the class and if you do, then you are responsible if something goes wrong.

Because C# is a Java clone

This one gets it

A good software engineer is also an architect. You don’t need dedicated architects if you have good developers.

But on the other hand there are much more questionable and unnecessary jobs like product managers or managers of managers.

This perfectly describes StackOverflow

I don’t think you can do something like this without yaml (fully custom mushroom template cards, each button opens a popup with the entities in the room, text formatting and unit conversion, also icons change dynamically depending on state and icons appear for open windows):

Most of my automations use templates. I have template sensors, I use the KNX integration, which must be configured using yaml and the adaptive lighting integration as well. For my dashboard I used many template cards (evaluation of states with templates to set appropriate icons, colours and text), tabbed cards, card mod for css inside yaml for my custom room cards.

You see, it absolutely depends on your requirements and how sophisticated your dashboard is.

I have around 2500 lines of yaml, I think that’s relatively much.
