A small bug is found.
Chad dev:
😎 *Exists*
> Writes a simple ad hoc solution in a few lines
> Self documenting code with constant run time
> No external dependencies needed
> Fixes the bug, easy to test and does not introduce any new issues
That guy nobody likes (AKA. regex simp coder):
🤡 'This can be "simplified" into oNE LiNe'
> Writes a long regex expression that has to line wrap the editor window several times
> Writes an essay in the comments to explain it's apparent brilliance to the peasant reader
> Exponential run time (bwahahah), excessive memory requirements
> Needs to import additional frameworks, requires more testing that will delay release schedule
> Also fixes bug but the software now needs 2x ram to run and is 3x slower
> Really puts the "simp" in simplified, but not the way you would expect26 -
"private is evil" or "static is bad" being thrown around without even thinking.
They're both a solid 14 out of 10 on my wtf scale.7 -
“Let’s not worry about the future and stick to the specs, please.”
Or as I like to call it:
The reddest flag in a bad manager.7 -
“We are on a hurry, let’s fix in production, then you can write the fix in the repo.” (Multiple times)
Guess why we are always on a hurry…3 -
That this one component being object orientated is necessary and good design.
We have uh interfaces, theyre contracts.
Spoiler: it wasn't, I could have written it in half the code and half the time. But no, we gotta have those patterns, can't miss on dependency injection!6 -
Just use the variable on the line after the promise, it will be populated then…

I‘d like to work more on my 2D game.
The idea is to make a mix of "Factorio" and "Knights and Merchants".
I’ve already got a decent basis with infinite terrain generation and units that collect resources and store them in containers as items.2 -
Something with tabs vs spaces...
I forgot who won the argument tho, my colleagues don't even indent shit, lol3 -
"Use java swing as your 2d game engine"
If this is someone you know, tell them to look at "processing"2
