When Clean Code Principles Go Too Far

clean-code-memes, best-practices-memes, magic-numbers-memes, over-engineering-memes, constants-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

Someone's been reading Uncle Bob's "Clean Code" a bit too religiously! Instead of using normal array indexes like a sane person, they've created named constants for the values 0, 1, 2, and 3. It's like wearing a three-piece suit to take out the trash—technically more formal but completely unnecessary. This is what happens when you follow the "magic numbers are evil" principle without applying any common sense filter. Next up: creating a constant called PLUS_ONE because incrementing by 1 isn't self-documenting enough! 🤦‍♂️

Years Of Experience Lost Within A Week

OH MY GOD, the TRAUMA is REAL! 💀 Take a two-week vacation and suddenly your brain turns into a BLANK NOTEPAD FILE?! The coding knowledge just EVAPORATES into thin air! One minute you're writing elegant algorithms, the next you're googling "how to print hello world" while questioning your entire career choices. It's like your brain has the memory retention of a goldfish swimming in COFFEE! And don't even get me started on coming back to your own code... "WHO WROTE THIS ABOMINATION?!" Oh wait, it was me... two weeks ago. The impostor syndrome isn't just knocking - it's BREAKING DOWN THE DOOR with a battering ram!

Content BAD Look at those indents and nesting. This looks like the pyramids. Are you a pharaoh? No. You are not a pharaoh. Pharaohs don't use Twitter. So don't build pyramids BETTER Use early returns to make your functions return the short values as early as possible, leave the long happy path for the end BEST Don't write code. The world has enough apps as it is. It's cool to not do one. const Header ( title ) if (title) return h1 class"header"titleh1 7 else return null const Header ( title 7) if (!title) return null return h1 class"header"title h1
