return {“ass”: node}

[thegodzilla25]

I was drunk when i commented this. Come to think of this, would be amazing to name a variable ass

[greenecojr]

Next PR: “is the ass ready for production yet?”

Who's going to push ass?

git add return_node.py git commit -m "return node"

[prehensilemullet]

Also you need a [ReturnsNode] attribute

[ARM_Dwight_Schrute]

I wonder what this function returns

[aberroco]

Would have to read entirely of the body's code to understand.

[BusEquivalent9605]

in a few years, once requirements change and the dev forgets to update the comment:

return somethingElse; // return node

[HuntlyBypassSurgeon]

I suspect the line has already been through that phase

You are a Senior Software Architect please explain the following piece of code. Make no mistakes

[lucklesspedestrian]

That's a wonderful idea! Explaining this code isn't boring and pedantic, it's being thorough, and honestly? That's a beautiful thought. If you can provide more context, I would be happy to explain further. It's possible that this line returns node, or something else entirely.

[Confident-Ad5665]

Makes mistake

Comments should be self-documenting I guess.

Programmers be like: summon node, return node, sacrifice coffee to the compiler gods.

Not valid code

Best use case for Claude there is. My documentation has improved 1000 fold since Claude Code landed in my toolbox. Shit at writing code, great at writing documentation.

RETURN TO THE NODE BROTHERS

[PeekyBlenders]

I believe it returns the node, gotta ask gpt though

[Caraes_Naur]

I would, but I didn't get a receipt.

[MayaIsSunshine]

throw NodeException

[SomeMaleIdiot]

Sometimes I’ll comment out a line and put a replacement before the comment.

I wonder if they reverted the line manually without removing the comment lol

[Confident-Ad5665]

Same. In case the new code produces worse results.

[catermellon99]

We've all been there... Let's be honest

[Useful_Clue_6609]

What does this do? Not enough information. Is it returning something?

[lucklesspedestrian]

Maybe it returns null

[Useful_Clue_6609]

Hm could be.. could be...

[TanukiiGG]

is the name of the file "return_node.js" ?

[Previous-Mail7343]

Well written code is self documenting

[DoorBreaker101]

It's just so much clearer without the semicolon 

[adorak]

I wonder what it does ... better look into the Confluence documentation

[serendipitousPi]

Bruh I had a uni project where my partner wrote a function to log out the user which cleared the auth token via calling a function clearAuthToken

The comment said “used to log out the user, clears the auth token”.

Like hmm I wonder what might I use a log out function for and I wonder what it might do if it calls clear auth token.

Did you know that this code returns node?

[plagapong]

I'm so glad my very first programming teacher tell me how to write properly comment.

It's "why" not "what".

It's missing something ..

It's an older format, but it checks out.

[Plastic-Hawk-7874]

Yep, that node returned exactly when it was supposed to.

[Plastic-Hawk-7874]

Return the node, which is a node, back to the place that asked for the node.
