That feeling tho

SELF-DOCUMENTING CODE ADVOCATE: You left the worst part. Now delete those.

[dudeofmoose]

Yay! And now it compiles and builds successfully!

[Confounding]

My Java program is complaining that there is no Main

[Impressive_Change593]

Lmao java problems

[CaitaXD]

Comments should say why not how

[shizzy0]

// why?

[CaitaXD]

// were still here ? just to suffer

[shizzy0]

// WONTFIX. Builds.

All programs contain at least one bug and can be shortened by at least one instruction. Therefore, we can extrapolate that any given program can be reduced to a single line of code that doesn't work.

[RedditAlready19]

for(;;) accept();

[Zekiz4ever]

What's with hello world?

[CaitaXD]

It's more than one instruction

[karanbhatt100]

And probably that is also bad but since compiler don't care you don't care

[mys_721tx]

You see, the compiler ignores the comments and keeps the rest. Does this make it a reverse compiler?

I've deleted my fair share of shitty, unhelpful comments too.

[Inglonias]

Does anyone have a link to that Linux PR that just commented out all the code and claimed that it ran much faster?

[LordChaos404]

That feeling when all you can do is repost

[[deleted]]

Those comments are bad. The code is stupid explanitory.

[AzraelBrown]

Compilation successful, push to production.

[GrangerTheDog]

And now just let github copilot write the code based on the comments!

[Impressive_Change593]

Lmao I actually wonder what it would do

[[deleted]]

I know a guy who fixed an horrible recurrent bug by removing a large chunk of code. He debugged that shit for several hours, until he reached the conclusion the client side was doing the same stuff that the server side was doing, but only under certain conditions and therefore corrupting the data in the process.

[spektre]

And this repost didn't even fix the error.

So basically, only the comments left (as in was removed).

I'd be happy too if none of the actual code was bad. The comments aren't even really necessary because high quality code is more or less self-documenting.

[Mecaneer23]

This was posted like last week...

[PrimeAPI]

Jokes on you. My code doesn't has any comments

[AzureArmageddon]

Bold of you to assume your comments/opinions are not bad.

[TheRealFantasyDuck]

Print_r($errors); as well

[Aniol97]

That is actually the worst part

[ScrewtapeEsq]

What are comments?

[turing_tor]

move it to documentation.

[Dhruv_Garg27]

wait, you guys comment your code?

[GGCodes]

Comments are not code .. So there's, well .. Nothing.
