True. And I'm sure most devs that I mention in my comment actually get the job done. In their own way.
I have paired up with some terrible programmers, with bad coding habits, weak knowledge of their ecosystem and no capacity for any kind of architecture design, but that eventually did better than me because they worked way more, and were more persistent.
This idea that bad code will waste productivity is not that important if one person accepts to work 30 hours more than you every week, including to fix the mistakes they introduced by writing said code in the first place.
- rubber_duck 7y agoThe level of complexity involved in developing even a basic CRUD solution these days requires knowing a tech stack going from DAL over networking, protocols to Front-end. Just getting all that shit to work and being able to reason through to get something working requires years of experience. If you can produce something working that satisfies the requirements you can't be terrible in my book, no matter what I think of your style
- stef25 7y agoSomething that works & satisfies requirements may still be terrible to maintain, expand or debug. That's the real difference between a well / badly developed app. Agreed on the levels of complexity in basic apps nowadays.
