@devnull@mamot.fr @PeterLG@theblower.au @maaikees@sw-development-is.social Even if you are correct you are still wrong. Most times requirements change so most code ends up thrown away a few years (more likely months (more likely weeks)) later. Code quality does not matter under those circumstances. It *does* matter on the few places where you *know* it will last. Sucessful software platforms/languages (js,java,.net,gnu/linux,flash,ms-excel,etc) are successful because they allowed lots of crappy code to mostly coexist.
