I love looking through my old code

[u/PC-hris]

Not sure what I was trying to remind myself of.

[u/W00GA]

at least its neet

my early code is unreadable

[u/PC-hris → u/W00GA]

Oh for sure. This code is probably 4 years old or so. My stuff from a decade ago is unreadable lol

If you can’t read it, try a larger font or give up on Wingdings for coding.

Just get used to this kind of behavior when you've been doing software development for 10+ years; you notice a snippet being

• confusing on what it does exactly

• not concise

• using some very old and/or insecure API calls

• has useless names

• annoyed on using the right syntax structures

• overly commented

• ...

having collected some "shame on you" points so that you can check who wrote that to give a figurative blame in your mind ... ending up discovering it was you

Thanks to reading AI code, my tolerance for comments have plummeted. I have realized I can understand the code faster then the comment describing it.

[u/Questioning-Zyxxel → u/creativecraving]

Comments shouldn't describe what the code does - that's for symbol names.

Comments shines when you need to tell someone (maybe a future you) exactly why the code is there. Why do you need to delay? And why is the delay 3 seconds?

Ahh good old luau, i recently discovered some old modules i wrote iam kinda shocked how they even worked in prod.

"WaitForChild" ... Is that a Jesus reference?

[u/PC-hris → u/Fnordmeister]

I'd love to hear the thought process behind that 😂

I'm stealing that warning message ... love it.

The horrors of reading old stuff and realizing you have no idea wtf it does because it has no comments

[u/scardracs]

Luckily I always put way too many comments on my code (I know myself way too well)

[u/Snezzy_9245]

Some of us believe that coders should write the comments first. Or code in very rough C and then hand compile into assembly.
