"Who the fuck wrote this piece of crap?"

git blame

"Oh. It was me."

it was me

I'm right here.

Honestly, I could go for this.

The true developers punishment for legacy code...

It’ll be hard to find them because theyre chasing down the previous devs at the new company

Don't blame me. I inherited it from a contractor that was hired as an expert on the subject but barely knew more than me. And then they just wanted that shit done fast instead of right.

(To be fair to the contractor, they were an expert on an adjacent subject)

I had a previous dev go work for Siemens... as their support rep to us. We're not allowed to ask him about any prior code, but we talk to him so often it hurts.

Probably getting non-renewed in May. Going to be getting a lot of questions once they realize that we're still selling 2 year support contracts.

1) Where's the source code?

2) How do I build it?

3) What's a hardware authentication dongle?

I'll be charging double as a consultant.

Physically impossible to look at another devs project or code in general and go “why the fuck would you do that”

The president was young and coherent when I started here.. I'm right down the hall...

What if the previous dev was you.

Rusty Spoon.....?

I mean obviously Rust is clearly the way to go, I suggest you rewrite all the old code in Rust, to fix whatever the last idiot did, it might only take a few months but the performance will be amazing. And remember to tell all your friends!
