I love my code. Whether it's 6 months old or 20 years, I can readily understand it, and prefer it other people's code by a wide margin.



Erratum: It's too late to edit the comment, but what I was trying to say is that my code doesn't change because I don't learn. Alas, my wording somehow doesn't convey that at all.

Credits to the clairvoyance of JoeAltmeier for the kind correction!


Sorry didn't mean to be catty. Just that, our 20-year old code for most people seems naïve and clumsy.


Must not be learning? My code changes because I learn and change.
