This is the crux of it for me. I want to read code not solve code. If I have to "figure out what's going on" then it's not great code.
- RangerScience 5y agoYES. An older Rubyist once told me: "Code is programmers communicating with other programmers."

- smaudet 5y agoAn entirely subjective measure. I want to solve problems, not read code. I can read your code and understand it, but then still have to solve it to understand what problem you are solving.
