Why bother with the Sisyphean task of migrating from Prettier and ESLint to #BiomeJS when you can just use a 🪓 to #refactor your entire codebase? It's like trading your bicycle for a tricycle and expecting to win the Tour de France. 🚴‍♂️💨

How do you know when to rewrite it all instead of refactor?

Ah, yes, the riveting tale of how a "noop" refactor—a coder's favorite oxymoron—somehow tanked #performance by 30% ⏬. But fear not, brave souls; our hero embarks on a treacherous journey into the mystical land of #Golang #memory allocations 🧙‍♂️, determined to unfurl the secrets of the heap while we all pretend to care. 🤷‍♂️

I refactored the [[Bookcase]] in my wiki … it might be a good topic for a video tutorial someday.

Instead of loading in different stored lists as a way of filtering the content, I now have one list that is filtered dynamically that both list (text) views and cover (image) views adhere to, making for neat on-the-fly re-arranging of the same list, and much more optimized.

more ughhhh. been trying to #refactor the code which renders all this stuff for *ages*

i want it as free-standing single-purpose functions, so i can test each one of them more easily

however, i keep running into my reluctance to write code of the sort:

```
fn foo <'a, A, B, C, D> (a: A, b: B, c: C, d: D) -> impl Content + use<'a, A, B, C, D> where A: impl Content, B: impl (Fn()->A) + Send + Sync, C: impl Content, D: impl (Fn()->C)+Send+Sync { ...```

This might be the most obvious of #linktuesday links in ages, but really, I've recently been helped a lot by #rector. So yes, I'm sharing Rector today: https://getrector.com

If you have not worked with it before, it may seem intimidating, but take some time to get used to it, because it can really make your life a lot easier, especially when working with #legacy code

#php #refactor

Because I am

- #agile -y only writing #code that I need immediately
- writing research #software where I don't really know what I want until I see it running
- dumb

I often find I get 90% of the way to somewhere useful and realize I need to #refactor large swaths to get the last 10%.

I missed an abstraction layer. Or rather, I deliberately omitted it because I was "more like DISTRACTION LAYER" at the time. But now I need that layer.

It seems overwhelming, but I have a major #engineer #mentalhealth tool: #git

If it turns into a tar pit, I can just revert.
