The Art Of Selective Blindness

todo-memes, technical-debt-memes, code-comments-memes, procrastination-memes, developer-habits-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

Selective blindness is a core developer skill. Those TODOs are like the digital equivalent of that pile of laundry you've been stepping over for weeks. Sure, they're there, screaming for attention with their all-caps urgency, but acknowledging them would mean actually having to do something about them. Better to just pretend they don't exist until code review forces your hand. Future you can deal with it – that guy's always been a bit of a sucker anyway.

Content Three words. Eight letters Say it and I'm yours. Dammit Linda why does it have to be this? You know there are (-25 ways to just partition 8 letters into 3 words, and that's disregarding empty strings. On top of that there's 268 possibilities for those 8 letters. And that's only the lowercase English alphabet as well. What if it has capitals, symbols, heck, even Roman Numerals as well? Can you at least tell me which alphabet we're working with here? Because if it's just the English one then I'm not sure you're worth the 4176541291520 guesses. Giving me computationally hard problems is a bad way to start a relationship Linda.
