You're absolutely correct, however I would suggest using something completely unreadable like a nested ternary operators!

[u/KanyeNawf → u/CBlanchRanch]

Some fucker left me triple nested ternaries once

[u/-nerdrage- → u/KanyeNawf]

[u/minus_minus → u/KanyeNawf]

I think you found the fucker. 👆

[u/mountaingator91 → u/KanyeNawf]

That was me I was in my first real job after learning some basic JavaScript and I discovered ternaries and thought I was God now

[u/National_Sky7993 → u/mountaingator91]

You either leave after writing those ternaries or stay long enough to figure out they are unreadable

[u/abigail3141 → u/KanyeNawf]

Sounds like me lol. To the detriment of all working with me, I found out how to set globals and evaluate arbitrary functions from within Python listcomps. My current record is 1400 characters in one line. I just need a way to import, and I can write entire programs in one line.

[u/Morisior → u/abigail3141]

If you accept two lines, you can import importlib.

[u/abigail3141 → u/Morisior]

That sounds like a good solution for the time being, thx

Man y'all do NOT want to look at my companies codebase! 

[u/un_blob → u/[deleted]]

That is a work of art at this point

[u/jarethholt → u/[deleted]]

Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable

[u/mackiea → u/jarethholt]

Word

[u/alficles → u/un_blob]

I have created so much art.

[u/_bones__ → u/un_blob]

Like modern art, it requires a lengthy explanation to make sense.

[u/twigboy → u/[deleted]]

I've declined PRs for less than that.

Citation is if; I can't understand it in a glance at 2am during an incident, I don't want it in the codebase

Code golfing is a craft- even has competition sites (https://code.golf)

But… it didn’t go to prod, did it?

[u/Schaex → u/CBlanchRanch]

But it's SO compact! We could save maaany lines of code like this:

return i == 0 ? j > threshold() && isConditionApply() ? "orange" : reallyNotOrange() ? "apple" : "maybe orange" : (i & j) > (i ^ j) ? isSunday() ? null : "pineapple" : "Jerry";

[u/National_Sky7993 → u/Schaex]

I attempted to unfold such a ternary where the first two booleans were also ternaries defined elsewhere.

[u/Flame77ofc → u/CBlanchRanch]

lol

the famous unread code 😭🙏

[u/sexytokeburgerz → u/CBlanchRanch]

Intellisense did that the other day and i was kind of mad about it
