- vokep 8y agoWhat is bad about that
- khacking 8y ago“Just do...” is oversimplification. If you can explain how to do something that others are finding difficulty in, it’s a. Arrogant and b. Probably not understanding it fully to say “just do X”
- neverartful 8y agoIt's a sign of being a know-it-all.

- PopeDotNinja 8y agoIn my experience, when one has an immediate answer to every problem, that is a sign that one does not understand the problem. Every non-trivial story needs some ugly code to account for a pathological edge case that the "just do X" developer isn't thinking about.
