  • I work a lot with the local history of the IDE, where I can also set labels to a current state. In addition, it creates its own labels like last time all tests were green etc.

    Still, in one of my last project that really lived TDD, they made a good point that I should just push as often as I label, since that also triggers all sorts of other tests which I usually don’t run locally, or not as often.

    I had “rearrange code” checked once for a commit, and fortunately, it had automatically saved the exact state before that.



  • Just based on the facts from what information we have, I fully agree. The story would have to change significantly in order to show anything other than exemplary display of good self-defence principles:

    • avoid being in a shady location - check
    • when getting in a sticky situation anyway, attempt to flee / defuse (good judgement on what to try first) - check
    • if still in the threats phase: back off a bit to clearly demonstrate that you are not the aggressor, support that verbally - check
    • If it is clear that the attacker ignores your pleas, do the minimum damage to STOP the attack safely. Based on that principle, he could have pulled & shot a lot sooner, but apparently wanted to be more defensive & nice than most would have been - check

    You should not allow a verbally aggressive person to stay at a distance where they could land a punch or use a concealed knife at any time, especially after you backed off already. Try articulating near a cop’s face and see what (rightfully) happens.
