Working with a company that writes hundreds of regexes per day, I can say with confidence: regex syntax is _not_ fine. People with lots of experience make obvious mistakes and lose them in the line noise all the time.
- xdfgh1112 4y agoDo you use the /x modifier?
- SonOfLilit 4y agoThe regexes are very simple, there's just thousands of them. /x wouldn't help much.
- donatj 4y agoWhat could the job possibly be? Based on next to nothing, sounds like you might be better off building custom parsers?
- chrisshroba 4y agoI'd guess any large tech company on average is writing at least hundreds per day, given the crazy amounts of code being produced.
