Before reading this article, take a moment to reflect on these 3 questions:

1. How often, and how long, do you stop and think for yourself before seeking information from others?
2. What are some positives and negatives about the widespread proliferation of information today?
3. Do you find yourself thinking through problems more or less than you have in the past?

It’s not at all uncommon to open a code repo and find the following commit messages:

version bump
fixed a bug
this works now

These are fine commit messages, but only for one person and at one point in time: the committer and the 5-minute period following the creation of the commit.
