[Irony on] It's somehow reassuring that Google engineers also "check StackOverflow for answers". Helps me to raise my low self-esteem. :D I thought all what Google engineers do is writing code from scratch in brainfuck all day long.[Irony off] Of course I am just joking.

Namely legacy code. They should pick up a copy of 'Working effectively with legacy code'. They might extrapolate some of those advices and apply to their situation.
