My first post on Mastodon. Hi all!

I used to read one or two books annually, usually during my vacation. My want-to-read list would steadily grow, but I also wanted to spend time on other hobbies. Until I realised one day, that it only takes 20 pages daily to reach a whopping 7300 after one year! And that's how my new habit began.

Made some solid progress on the Baby Creation Screen today! 🚀

Trying to keep things clean and simple while building this in SwiftUI and SwiftData.

What do you think?
Open to any thoughts or tips!

@JeffGrigg If I'm taking #TinySteps, and writing the least-effort code to get my test to pass, then it can happen if I, say, return a constant. Gets the recently-Red test to Green, but breaks the others (not a surprise). Then I modify the code to use a field instead of a constant, and then all tests are Green.

It's a form of triangulation, and I won't always do it, but it's nice because it reassures me that I understood exactly how to get the recently-Red test to Green.

The above is Expected, however, which is different from "oh crap, I broke a bunch of tests because of some connection I was unaware of". Which means I didn't fully understand the code I'm working on. This happens more rarely, but does happen.

@alexanderbird

"if we break something, we want to know right away so we know exactly what to fix"

And that's something that isn't always promoted as a benefit of #TDD with #TinySteps: if everything was Green, and we just made that 2 line code change and now some tests are Red, well, we know exactly which lines of code are suspect!

A reminder from @RonJeffries
"We’re in this for the long game...We don’t imagine that we can do things right the first time, and...because we work to make changing easy, we don’t pay a high price for change, which lets us take small steps and learn from them."

@samreciter Na komm jetzt wird langsam das Faxgerät abgeschafft, dann machen wir das mit den Raketen. #TinySteps

For the past few weeks I have managed to stick to my goal of cycling to and from work twice a week. Mostly because I missed the bus, but hey, I'll take the win.
