↳ In-reply-to » @markwylde No, it doesn't have to be this way, but it is (almost) always this way. When a programming language makes it too easy to manage dependencies, you inevitably get microdependencies. It doesn't help that many people learn JavaScript or Python as their first language.

@eaplmx@twtxt.net my view on this is that I tend to recreate the wheel everytime for a simple reason: it get better everytime I make it.

When copying something, which is ok for me too, you’re relying on the thought you had at the time, while currently they could be different and you could get around a problem quite differently.

For me reusability is about internal code, not with libraries.

If I need to share code with my project using a library then that library is made with my own hands and code.
