as a contractor i enjoy when clients want yolo driven development
- munk-a 3y agoContractors and YOLO code have an interesting relationship. A lot of near-shore contractors are folks who are extremely strong developers... but the main motivation for writing clean code (for non-junior developers) is that you'll need to return to that code in a few weeks months or years - and you've been burned by your own poorly written code in the past. This motivation doesn't really exist for contractors - write once code that does what it says on the tin (no matter how horrific it is internally) will get you your payday. I've met highly skilled contractors that have produced extremely maintainable code and I've met extremely fast working contractors that have fulfilled the contract and left a pile of spaghetti code in their wake.
