This reminds me of a similar story in a classic Gamasutra article[1] (the section is "The Programming Antihero", and I'd recommend the other pages of the article for a few good chuckles). Apocryphal or not, it makes for a good story. > I can see how sometimes, when you're up against the wall, having a bit of memory tucked away for a rainy day can really make a difference. Funny how time and experience changes everything. [1] https://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/132500/dirty_coding_tricks.php?page=4 https://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/132500/dirty_coding_t...
