It's a whole different experience to watch this when you're high ngl. Especially for someone who comes from non-tech background but somehow understood what the video was about. Great work 👍
dude. i love the style of this video so much! its the style that always gives me weird unexplainable lost feeling, idk if its just me that feels this. its just awesome everytime i get this feeling.
The style is intentionally designed this way, full of colors and pops and smiles, to distract you from the lack of meaningful substance. They say a lot of bs without giving you any real data.
I know it's a newbie question, but how do you make sure that if thousands of people have their own branches and let's say twenty people merge their branch within one hour there won't be any conflicting code pushed there? Let's say I used a function from a library to make my code faster, but that library got updated a few minutes after I merged it. Even worse, what if it's let's say not overloaded now because developer noticed nobody used that overload capabilities, so he simplified the code, but my fresh branch uses that overloading in 2% of use-cases? It would create a nightmare scenario that requires thousands of people to maintain a large codebase, while if they weren't able to work in parallel in my opinion, they would work like 60% slower, but the code would need half the people to maintain it, what would save companies millions as maintenance lasts way more time than development. Maybe I am wrong though?
There are tools that you can compare branches. Additionally, you can test on local machines before using upstream. Testing usecases is important, and many people build tests for their code to run/pass before they push their code.
You're not wrong. But you're missing one key point. If you're using a library then it's the job of the library developers to make their code backward compatible. If everyone does their job right, you should never have to worry about a library changing its implementation drastically in a minor update.
Ahhh this happens all the time. It's called "Merge conflicts". There are lots of tools on the platform to help people with Merge Conflicts and choose the versions that go into the main branch. This is why developers also need to make sure their branch has the main changes pulled in, and that maintainers are regularly reviewing pull requests.
Maybe Microsoft being a pure evil company does indeed "merge instantly", but for usual people there is another way called "rebase" which solves most of your concerns.
