The only valid Measurement of Code Quality: WTFs/Minute

Content rprogramming Posted by uOnlyRepostsTop 6h 801 82 1 There's a reason that programmers always want to throw away old code and start over: they think the old code is a mess.

Why actually learn SQL when you can just insult everyone else's intelligence instead? The classic developer shortcut: when in doubt, blame others! Nothing says "I'm totally competent" like calling database experts names while secretly Googling "what is a JOIN statement" for the fifth time today.

Someone asks about the perfect date, expecting some romantic answer about candlelit dinners or sunset walks. Instead, they get DD/MM/YYYY—the objectively superior date format that eliminates all ambiguity. Because nothing says "I love you" quite like proper data standardization. The response "Other formats can be confusing really" is chef's kiss. Looking at you, MM/DD/YYYY users who somehow convinced themselves that putting the month before the day makes sense. It's like organizing files as YYYY/MM/DD but someone had a stroke halfway through. Pro tip: If you really want to impress, go full ISO 8601 with YYYY-MM-DD. Now THAT'S romance—sortable, unambiguous, and internationally recognized. Your database will thank you.
