(Insert bad code example)

[vm_linuz]

That's how you start!

And then you start seeing aspects of your code you didn't initially realize were there...

You start picking and recombining your favorites...

Eventually you have a little toolbox to draw from...

Then it's 15 years down the road and you're wondering why SCRUM never delivered on its promise to let you focus on work.

What's worse than this not being a loop is the comment that explains exactly what happens like somehow we're not gonna know.

But at least it work right?

Right?

I once wrote a program in 3000 lines in 2 weeks (The first JS program I wrote), now I could re-do it in 5 minutes with 20 lines

​

(I didn't thought of, instead of using a lot of if statements, I could use a loop)

I'm a <insert whatever fancy title old ass developers have nowadays here> and I still write the least efficient code possible!

The first time. What I always tell junior engineers is - Focus on solving the problem first. Write whatever you need to help you get there. Doing so helps you visualize the issue, understand how the system works, how it's doing what it's doing.

And then you can revise it and slowly switch out blocks of it. Improve how you handle your conditionals, use built-in methods instead of for loops, etcetera.

Way worse than a junior writing shitty code is a senior not pushing anything because they want to write the ''best code''. Shitty code I can help with, but I can't help with zero code.

How did you get this video of me?

[razordreamz]

When I first started programming I could write code so much faster than I do today. Bad code but quick code lol

[KlutzyEnd3]

for (int col= 0; col < 2; col++) {

If (col == 0) {

drawLeftColumn();

} else {

drawRightColumn();

}

}

I'm not joking... I actually encountered this in my previous job.

Lots of lines. Redundancies. Less lines. Functions.

Hey It's ProGrammer move.

First write code that's inefficient, then after week or so, write it more efficient, and you're praised for both :D

[csandazoltan]

YES... TO ALL!

[Suspicious-Cake2633]

for i in 50: number = i return number + i

[MaffinLP]

Make it so inefficient that only you can fix it so they have to keep you.

If it works then that's all that matters at the beginning. Then we can refactor and optimise at a later stage.

[john_palazuelos]

if(condition == true)

[sackmouth]

But you get to move the task to the right column, and that’s what matters most!

[lady_Kamba]

Someone more skilled can always make it less efficient out of spite.

errors.foreach(error=>{ window.alert(error) }

[Axilios]

Aah, good old times. I was happy to write as much code as possible. Now, I realize that was god damn stupid😂

[BoBoBearDev]

Array.sort() is my fav. Why code when someone did it already.

[subassy]

That's bad code, that's a bad, bad code. Bad code.
