My latest personal project would look like this:

      Haha! Complete opposite.

      Giant monorepo that’s delicately balanced and one wrong move can cause the whole thing to flip over.

      (Not arguing over what is better. That’s just my life in the past few years, and It’s a stupid argument)

      Too real.

      We had a consultation last year to better structure our code base to look more like the first picture. Then it slowly evolved back into the second picture.

    Apparently, this is a dogfood burger. No idea why that exists, but I’ll take it, because I’m definitely dogfooding.

    I’m building a build system. And I’ve got three previous/ongoing projects where I’m directly integrating it.
    And yeah, I’ve noticed that I’m kind of jumping between features, always just building them as far as I need them.

    And in particular, I’m not really planning ahead. For exanple, I noticed after the fact that I could easily pull out a whole feature into a separate library, and that would already be useful on its own.

    But on the plus side, it’s much easier to figure out actual requirements this way.

    (not an image but)

    I would take an already-made burger, then inspect it and rip out elements of it, replace several others, add a bunch of layers of new things. It would take a few months and I would have no idea what I’m doing the whole time, but I would persist. The end result would be a delicious burger that occasionally has a missing item. Still working on why/where/how that happens. People would enjoy it, but most would not know that they can customize their burger, or the extent of the options.

    (I used to code as a hobby in VB, C#, and Java over a decade ago, almost two; this burger example is me not knowing a damn bit of Lua, as I fork and modify a game mod to have a lot more features, less confusing variables, and lots of broken commented code as I have ideas but still don’t fully grasp what I’m doing. Weeeee!)

    The most immaculate well researched pickles ever seen.

    But I’m getting bored, I should learn how to write, or maybe draw, or maybe dance.

    No I got it, I’ll shift my focus to an obscure Github program I’m using to test a weird thought I had!

    I’ll finish this burger later…
