A good programmer can get more done than 10 bad programmers, but a bad programmer's code can keep 10 good programmers busy for years.

So true

Amen!

Hail the mighty Lord.

Somtimes you just have to rewrite it because finding logic in their code is taking more time then starting from scratch

If you have a programmers thinking...you wont write a full project from scratch..instead you will try to figure out the readymade code...

@xhtml how is that programmer thinking? sounds a bit like I will copy everything together until it works and end up with an extra thousands lines of not used programming.

but maybe I understood you wrong ;)

Just had my good share of copy and paste developers that would copy entire classes from the internet with like 20 functions and only using one of them.

Copy entire thing is of a non-developer thing... maybe i said my words in a different way...
think... if you got a project coded by 10-20 programmers... one wont write that from scratch with just the logic of its working...
one will just look at the code and will debug that and remove the unnecessary part.

@xhtml I have bever worked on projects that big. What kind of scale am I thinking of?
