You can grep for todo in your codebase. It will list them.

So some people, when having full responsibility, produce poor quality products. You don't understand what it means? You prefer to live in denial?

When I see undocumented project that doesn't build, I know that the developer doesn't care about the quality of his work.

Or, except if you need absolute precision, you wrap all those primitives in a function that uses SI. So seconds for your sleep wrapper.

It depends. That kind of code does or doesn't disturb me in production code.

They operate the way I expect. set -e fails when I don't handle the error code of a command. If my script eat it, it doesn't fail. I see no problems here.

I would complain. I bought the cheapest mouse and keyboard. I don't need high-tech stuff for coding. But it's your choice, not mine.
