Narrative ledger — decision-grade record

(ideas and agreements that steer the code base)

Decision-grade idea quotes

Tag Quote (verbatim) Who hh:mm
250605-001 “I’m on a mission to reduce this cluster as much as freaking possible.” Tim 00:57
250605-002 “If something makes no sense for me, it won’t make sense for the next dev. Rename it now and let the build break if it must.” Sergio 01:02
250605-003 “Remove the outer error-case; every sub-VI already skips on error. It’s noise, not safety.” Petru 01:13
250605-004 “Unit-tests force us to layer the code. LUnit over Caraya; anything UI-bound gets abstracted.” Neil 01:14
250605-005 “I can group the events so we actually find them.” Tim 00:29
250605-006 “Grouping by functionality beats scrolling fifty events.” Neil 00:30
250605-007 “Let’s comment more; a wider audience will read the diagrams.” Tim 00:48
250605-008 “Everyone has permission to rename nonsense — follow the law of reason.” Sergio 01:05
250605-009 “Dedicate a ledger for non-decisional ideas so nothing gets lost.” Petru 01:12
250605-010 “We can trust core devs to create branches; just block direct merges to main.” Neil 01:32
250605-011 “CI should produce HTML diffs so we don’t open LabVIEW for reviews.” Sergio 01:52
250605-012 “Tag every spoken line permanently; future AI can cross-link.” Sergio 02:05
