I try to be LOC neutral. A good day on a healthy team lets me delete at least as much code as I write.

- forrestthewoods 11y agoThe best days are when you delete more code than you write. If the only thing I did was delete code I'd be soooooo happy!
- SomeCallMeTim 11y agoI agree that LOC isn't an ideal metric. But there isn't really an ideal simplistic metric. Out of curiosity, I thought I'd look at a recent productive day. In actual numbers, my 42 check-ins totaled 409 new lines of code compared with 213 lines deleted, so close to 50% (not counting check-ins with simple line changes). At the end I had several new features implemented and a lot of code refactored to be cleaner.
