There’s something to be said about the visibility of gambling as a signal to people that someone may have a problem. Gambling on your phone just looks like being on your phone. It even improves access to the addiction. Needing to go to a casino looks a lot different, provides some friction, and could spur intervention. The same could be said about loot boxes vs buying Pokemon cards in a store.
> Because commit history is here to explain WHAT and not WHY.
When that commit gets implicated by `git bisect` and all you see in the message is exactly what you’d see by reading the patch anyway, you’ll wish the author answered why they did what they did. This, especially, when the author is no longer at the company.
It continually amazes me how averse people are to just explaining why a commit exists in the body of the commit. Is all this tagging actually easier to read than written prose? You don’t even have to write it anymore if the sight of your editor opening upon `git commit` causes some instinctual revulsion.
