The tweet before that:
This says more about you, the scale of the project, bad organisation of your group, and the lack of challenge of Berkeley (nice namedrop though) group projects, and the failure of understanding the excersize (the goal is to learn how to work as a group and notice the networking problems), and the goals of being at a university (networking, partying and learning) than anything else.
Hell I know of a project that also did this and they didnt manage to rewrite the project, as it actually took a lot of time.
To be fair a couple of people at my school were so far ahead of the pack that they could do this kind of things. One of them was a really cool dude who lifted his teammates, the other a pretentious asshole who once rewrote my friends' parts of a project because it was not up to his standards, they were pissed lol.
Yes, you are right, which is why I didnt say that, should have been more explicit and mention that it was possible. Esp if it was a first year project and someone had a decade of programming exp already (but then the lack of versioning us weird, but also not impossible, as coding vs project management are different skills).
E: But it gets weirder : https://xcancel.com/gmchariszhang/status/1886361422445138099#m they were using git. Indeed https://xcancel.com/martinmalindacz/status/1886390223141048749#m
Yeah I'm with Martin on this one, smells like bullshit.
