Lesson, continuous integration.
Do NOT allow important contributions to be kept dark until the last instance.
That’s even more important at work and unfortunately to common.
We had an external team from a consultant company that always dropped their additions just before code freeze often with merge conflicts that delayed the freeze.
Luckily they lost the contract and was replaced by an in-house team. -
In school group projects there are a few types of people:
1 Those who do nothing, disappear until it’s time to take credit and then magically appear the day of the exam
2 Those who want to do anything and only cause troubles
3 Those who work perfectly in team always listen advice and give good advice and are there to help you when you need them (and if you ask them they might even let you ride their unicorn 🦄)
4 you
when your code is a mess but everything work out in the end
When you keep getting +1s on a rant you posted a month ago.
Go big or go home.
It feels like having awful group project experiences in college is a rite of passage.
I once worked with two other students that had no idea what git was, and outright refused to learn/use it when they could just "email the code." I begrudgingly worked with this, and the night before the assignment was due they both emailed me their work.
One of them had the AUDACITY to send me a PHOTO OF THEIR CODE. As if I was going to take the time to re-type everything myself. Not to mention it was all clearly copy and pasted code anyway.. what a nightmare.
