It's a great device even if your job isn't music production. Easy to use, lots of fun, though I didn't enjoy the form factor.
When I had no understanding of what was going on, I didn't like it either. Now that I use it frequently, I understand it better, so I don't hate it anymore.
I like running `git rebase <main-branch>`, where <main-branch> is typically master, in my-new-thing branch because it lets me deal with any conflicts from upstream one by one.
I also like running `git rebase -i` in my-new-thing when I have a bunch of commits with redundant messages that I want squashed into a single commit before I push the changes. Basically anything that requires messing around with a range of commits is a good use case for `git rebase -i`.
Why do you hate it so much? There's really not much going on that you should have to hate. To me it's like a bunch of small, compartmentalized merges.
That's because if they mess up the first time people can die.
I'm guessing the likelihood of death due to a bug in most web applications is probably much less than that of a bridge :)
Software is great because it's possible to iterate quickly. But ultimately, you have a point. Developers should be willing to fix bugs they've created and/or come across in their projects. We should also try to limit the potential of bugs by releasing small chunks of functional work as often as possible. "Releasing" in this sense can mean to production or just to your qa/test/dev/stage environment. It's just important to have many eyes on the product before it's live.
