It literally helps future programmers. There is nothing more inspiring than reading comments you can feel solidarity with. These literally are load bearing comments.
I also enjoy the sarcastic “I won’t regret taking this shortcut” comments. Like, you’re trying to fix some ass-holes code and they are literally mocking you for the fact that they knew they did it wrong but it would be someone else’s problem in the future. It’s a “pass the torch” kind of thing that I always enjoy. Like, I can’t be mad because I just feel so connected in our mutual frustration of wage labor bull shit.
The day I cannot swear in my code is the day I auto obsfuscate the whole thing so I can continue using swearwords but now also nobody else can work the code
Management can go fuck themselves. Do they want the code to fucking work or not? These are load-bearing fucks.
