I feel best when I'm deleting other's code, and accomplishing the same thing with much less code.

- rpledge 17y ago100% agree with this, less code = less maintenance. Very few people truly understand this and why it's important.
- SapphireSun 17y agoIn my latest app, I've noticed that I get the greatest highs when I write one specific function, and then rewrite it to be generic enough to handle four different elements. Great fun.
- alnayyir 17y agoThis is why I've never been impressed with people who are supposedly 10x programmers, but are actually people who just hammer out tons of code in response to any given problem. It strikes me that I'm seemingly one of the few people at my workplace who can handle abstracted functionality comfortable and make use of third party code/libraries without fear. tl;dr, I wrote a customer service app for my company in about a week flat.
