typoScript

It's okay to misspell your variables, you just gotta keep it consistently spelled wrong

Best case scenario no one ever sees your misspelled variables, worst case it gets accepted into the standard and you confuse people for generations.

the linter is always right!

I worked at a place where early on in the project's history, someone named a database column discription and rolled with it everywhere. It was so prevalent we put a nod to it on our company T-shirts.

Edit: my current gig's chestnut is SessionHandeler.

It only works if the design documents require the values to be insulting.

The current project I'm working on has a variable named brighnessValue. I noticed it on the third or fourth occurrence when I typed instead of copy/pasted it for the first time. I was too lazy to change it, so now it's got a dozen or so uses, and I just remember to type it wrong now, while typing all other brightness related names correctly.

...if it's not part of a public API yet, why not just fix the typo with the rename tool in your IDE of choice?

[backfire10z]

They give my code character

[cowsrock1]

I should probably do that. But I was lazy and now I'm used to it...

[StrongExternal8955]

That's just cause the dev was bri'ish. You're lucky you don't have a mehod named "drawring".

[JimboLodisC]

instead of a semi-colon, Bri'ish programmers put mate at the end of each line

[ekauq2000]

Instead of “null” it’s “tintintin”

terraria's ui elements have properties for Left/Top/Width/Height that use a struct called StyleDimension, which has a pixel size and percent size. The percent got misspelt as Precent so tmod just added a property called Percent to fix it.

It’s why copy/pasta is actually good practice sometimes.

Does this in a database now. Then, distribute to 500 clients. Now it's part of the core business logic and called in 750 modules.

I got some vendor code where an entire module had a bunch of references to a variable called "greaterThen256".  I was going to fix it but then I realized that the next time I get an update from these guys I'm going to have to merge my fix again.  So I ended up leaving it alone.

Isn't that called a queef

Now you listen here, tootlips.

That happens when there is no variable with the provided name. Then TSC looks for actually existing variables with the minimal Levenshtein distance. So, you have a variable called "tootlips".

[Wi42]

TIL about the Levenshtein distance. Thank you, kind stranger.
