Yeah, obviously. But I think that's ultimately the point anyway. The switch to open floor plans is going to slowly wear down and push out all the salty old codgers you currently need to pay a fortune for (and that actually know the systems and keep the company running) and replace them with eager new hires that will wo...

I've tried doing the test-first thing before, but it just wastes time because I always need to rewrite the tests after refactoring the design. Design up-front just doesn't work, you always discover things during implementation that you couldn't possibly have thought of ahead of time.

No. I could also only train models with datasets large enough that they are anonymous. I just. Personalized models could be made available to only the users they were trained from, and those could then export the model, and import it at a competing service, to keep their keyboard predictions, for example.

FWIW I actually am planning on trying to get Nix working inside boxes, but with a shared, global cache. That way, if you end up installing the same package on two different boxes, it doesn't need to rebuild everything again.

Most code falls into one of these categories: the code is obviously correct by inspection, the code will break your app in an obvious way if it is not correct, or the code is difficult/impossible to test. Unit testing is only worth it for code that doesn't belong to any of those categories.
