RTX On Turns Code Into Spaghetti

RTX OFF def from_settings(self, settings): debug = settings.getbool('debug') return cls(job_dir(settings), ...) def request_seen(self, request): fp = self.request_fingerprint(request) if fp in self.fingerprints: return True self.fingerprints.add(fp) if self.file: self.file.write(fp + os.linesep) def request_fingerprint(self, request): return request_fingerprint(request) RTX ON

A split image compares readable Python code with RTX turned off to a plate of tangled spaghetti with RTX turned on. The joke treats ray tracing as making the code visually overcomplicated and incomprehensible, so it works as a reaction to messy code or a feature that makes something worse instead of better.
