It’s tempting to try lots of fixes at once to save time:
Illustration of a smiling stick figure with curly hair.
dream: I’m going to add Z, and replace X with Y, and improve C– that’ll definitely fix it!
Illustration of the same stick figure, now sad.
reality: … now there’s a new problem AND it’s still broken
If I found I’ve done this by accident, I’ll:
- undo all my changes (git stash!
)
- make a list of things to investigate, one at a time
