< FLHerne>
tfw when you spend hours writing some complex code that can't easily be tested except as a complete subsystem
14:24
< FLHerne>
and it's getting late and you're increasingly struggling to keep a mental model of what it all does in your head
14:27
< FLHerne>
but if you stop before it's finished, it'll take just as long to re-understand as starting from scratch

This is what I use the NOTES file for, among other things

(GIMP)
20:16
<&[R]>
GIMP is great for hiding 90% of its functionality behind secret key combos
20:22
< ErikMesoy>
After a while using GIMP I stopped thinking of them as "secret" and more as "discoverable" because it was starting to become normal to me to play with a tool by trying to use the tool while holding Shift, Ctrl, or Alt. :D
20:32
<&McMartin>
That's the opposite of what "discoverable" means
20:34
< abudhabi__>
GIMP is wonderful if you twist your mind into a GIMP-shaped pretzel.
20:43
< ErikMesoy>
McMartin: Well, I discovered them without looking them up in a manual, and without intending to search for the function in question. ;)
20:45
<&McMartin>
Yeah. "Discoverable" means "systematically exploring the visible UI will eventually find it"
20:46
<&McMartin>
And that's stronger than "the program tells you it exists"; CLI APIs are AIUI definitially non-discoverable even if --help works
