Because you don’t actually understand the subtleties of the side effects of that 40-character change and building intuition about it takes a paragraph.
It’s all fun and games until your codebase is >1,000,000 loc.
- bastardoperator 3y agoThis code never worked but made it into production. What I see is a developer hucking garbage over the wall, not testing their own code, passing reviews assuming they exist, and eventually stopping the train in its tracks because they're more concerned with pretty commit messages. I also think this is beyond simple to catch early be it the editor, the pre-commit hook, or any other range of tools that could have and should have prevented this. I'm not saying a detailed commit message is never warranted, I'm saying this fuck up doesn't warrant a short story let alone a prize for being overly verbose. BTW, I did a loc . on the repo I work in, came back with 7400000 lines of code. Does this mean I'm cool enough to be in your club?
