  • More or less the same but the user gets passed as a method parameter each time. Validators would be in my opinion a long function inside the service also with named variables like this because it’s just easy to read and there are no surprises. I’d probably refactor it at around 5 conditions or 30 lines of validation logic.

    I recommend trying out using the constructor in services for tools such as a database and methods for data such as user. It will be very easy to use everywhere and for many users and whatever

    const passwordIsValid = ...
    if (!passwordIsValid){
      return whatever
    }
    


  • I always thought of the “how” being better explained by the code itself where you can see string.replace(" ", "\ ") as the actual fix while the message says the “why”.

    I would still have “Fix a bug where strings containing whitespace break CSVExporter” as my go to message.

    I guess our viewpoints are different based whether we want the commit messages to represent tasks or changes. They both have their uses of course. Looking at changes to a file to know what people have done to it is better with a “changes” type message but looking at the history to check “did we actually complete this or was it just marked as completed in the issue tracker?” is better with a task based message.

    Task management where every issue is put on a ticket and tracked would my type of messages obsolete but at my current company theyre very useful.







  • Don’t know why you would jump to that conclusion straight away. Mín billable hours and time spent thinking on the problem is a thing. Taking regular 5m breaks (pomodoro technique) also helps with getting things done and so on and people should be paid for it.

    I mean, you should technically stop the clock if the wife calls to ask if there’s pasta at home but nobody really cares.

    Adding significant amount of hours to a report would not be ethical but adjusting 10% to get paid for time laying in bed thinking about problems is still ethical from my point of view. It’s way more value than most meetings.

    Your cultural context way vary.
