Oh I have a good one.

A dev once was added to the team -he deleted all of the whitespace from the backend code (minified) and called that optimising. We had a lot of back and forth and me reverting the things back to non minified and him back to minified on live environement. I shit you not i had to endure that shit and he kept on insisting that I'm the shitty developer because I don't know how to optimise. I'm starting to rage even thinking about it....

Any review process?

@iiii small company, no reviews. The company I work for now does not do any reviews either. My own code is shitty a lot of the time, but I'm trying to improve and review my own an colleagues code. Never worked for a company with code reviews.

@araratas huge oof. Reviews may be annoying at times but they are really necessary

@iiii i know... I'm held with the golden handcuffs though. We'll see

Was it a Python app?

@platypus Oh no, you are in my closet!! Wtf

Uhmm, simple git reset to previous commit should do the trick, no?

@giko @giko @myss i was using birbucket as noone else was using versioning there. He refused using it because of the kerge conflicta and him overwritong ant pulling frequently.

@platypus
Php

@araratas This is insanity, i m also working with php and I can t seem to understand why there are so many bad php developers. They are so bad bad it makes my blood boiling. The company i m working for had a frontend in vue and a backend in laravel. The problem is that the vue js frontend had another backend in laravel where routes were written !!!!! So our app had 2 backends and 1 frontend. It took me 30 mins to convince the CTO to drop the frontends backend(that s how they called it ).

@galacticus wtf 😀

Benchmark both.

Print out the results on the back of a pink slip.

Hire someone competent to replace him.

Profit.

@Root it was the CTO who implement it( this is a small company with 4-5 devs). His argument was that they used this for every project and I was like WHAAAAATTT. That s not even an argument, it still makes it a bad design. Because the app was in it s early stages it was pretty easy to move the frontend into an SPA. It took me only 2 days.
