Reminds me of some code that I've written which got passed off to other teams who ripped it out because all they saw was the complexity and they didn't recognize what issues it was preventing (Chesterton's Fence).
- quickthrower2 3y agoCode like that needs a 10 ft comment. I have been save by seeing those on otherwise “why the fuck is this needed” code. If they if ignore the comment, well that is hubris.
- lamontcg 3y agoI'm pretty good about doing that. I've gotten compliments before for a massive 10 line code comment above a-single-line-that-shall-not-be-deleted.
