Dear Programmer Legacy Code Warning
// Dear programmer: // When I wrote this code, only god and // I knew how it worked. // Now, only god knows it! // // Therefore, if you are trying to optimize // this routine and it fails (most surely), // please increase this counter as a // warning for the next person: // // total_hours_wasted_here = 254 //
A dark code-editor screenshot shows a programmer’s comment warning future developers not to optimize a mysterious routine, while recording 254 wasted hours. The joke is that the original author no longer understands the code, so failed optimization should simply add to the counter.
