Hey man, speak for yourself. Not all of us write crappy code.
- LeonidBugaev 14y agoThanks for response! For sure I don't mean that you should write crappy code. I mostly talking about premature-optimizations. Right now there are lot of tools and techniques that allow to control code quality. At least test, code-reviews and code analysers.
- bdcravens 14y agoEven awesome code won't automatically scale because the developer is a genius. The idea of premature optimization applies to architecture and infrastructure as well.
- shasta 14y agoYes we do. In 50 years a decent programmer looking at your code will think it's crap.
- freyrs3 14y agoThey'll think its old code. I work with plenty of old Fortran linear algebra libraries and I don't think they're crap, they're just old but they still get the job done more efficiently than any modern software.
- kalimatas 14y agoWe're constantly developing as programmers and I'm sure where you open your code written a year ago you first intention is to say "What a crap!"
