... who can’t write self-explanatory code.
- nerdwaller 8y agoCode only captures the what and the how, comments for any complex routines can capture the why. Obviously overuse is probably a red-flag, but in my experience code alone doesn’t always capture enough context in any sufficiently complex system. I get your specific comment may be a bit sarcastic, given the ancestry - but I make this one more for younger developers I see that don’t always filter that ;)
