  • In college, on the first day of orientation, someone in my class bragged that they wrote 50,000 lines of code for a game that was similar to tic tac toe, emphasizing that he “wrote a lot of code”. A TA told him that it wasn’t a sign that his program was decent and that it really didn’t seem like it should take 50k lines of code to make something as simple as his game.

    He dropped out after the first week of intro to programming.


  • They just replied:

    What gave you the idea that this was a full rewrite? I moved things around with AI and added postgres support for the queries. Nobody has ever reviewed and tested anything more thoroughly than I did with this branch.

    You are twisting what it actually is. You are assuming something that is not true.

    This makes me think that they didn’t review or test it at all, lmao
