It's a political, power game. It simply shows lack of trust and regard for our time, or reflects inexperience and inability to manage. Otherwise the situation would speak for itself and the question wouldn't have been asked.
the testing pyramid is worth knowing about;
unit tests double code size and maintenance cost for the unit;
I've found unit tests only fit long-lived code and coverage doesn't generally correlate with reliability of product performance;
black box end to end testing at the interface level for the general scenarios does correlate with reliability, for those scenarios;
writing tests that properly separate concerns in this way seems to make it easier to write and maintain tests, and the product
What a remarkably unhealthy perspective. Yet engaged in communication here. My first thought was you must be American, but that could just as easily be quite a number of places and cultures across continents. In Israel personal boundaries are quite different and it's common to engage those around you in conversation. I wouldn't correlate mental stability with social norms--frankly I associate health with social engagement, so the opposite.
Took a long while until I found the right state of mind to finally understand what was causing those (rare) file corruptions. Once I figured that out, the rest was easy :-)
This is simply a reflection of the depth of design (visual and user experience). I'm saying contemporary UX and UI mostly ignore, or are ignorant of, the platform being used and its features. That's not necessarily the case with shoelace, the loading is simply a design decision made to look nice and I presume not much more. The shoelace component system is ok. It reflects a lot of work applicable to what has been possible and borrows from what has been possible the past few years. I find it interesting to see the details in systems and approach and would avoid using this product myself. I haven't reviewed it enough to get past the general impression that it's too complex to be worth the investment and has some weaknesses in the system and technical design. If I were doing a masters in visual communications it would definitely be worth a look, or if I wanted to lead a new project like it as well--to take the understanding of the problems and approaches.
This is like asking if html elements are SEO friendly. It depends how they're implemented. Google handles javascript now, if that's the salient detail.
