Don't. Just leave. To each, their own mess.


Oops, I expected funny jokes, I got depressing facts.


At a ticketing company in Barcelona, Spain, now working on a web interface to automate graphical assets creation and deployment.


Yes, spaghetti-code is much better! /s

> Following the logic

That's what names are for. I prefer to find _afterLeft_ spread all over the place rather than `x2<=x1` even if it actually increases code size by 50%. I can validate it only once, and if I stumble upon _aboveBottom_ I don't even need to validate it to infer what it means (left as an exercise for the reader).

This spaghetti line: `x2<=x1&&x1+w1<=x2+w2&&y2<=y1&&y1+h1<=y2+h2`, in my opinion, is much harder than `inside`.


x2 <= x1 is actually a one liner which could arguably be transformed into a one line function. OP was talking about splitting an entire program into 1-3 line functions, or at least that's how their sentence reads to me.


I stopped reading before finishing the third page. It seems to me that what many paragraphs advise is to be reasonable, which is meaningful, but a bit too loose for guiding code reviews.


META

May I ask you to change the leading text to something more useful for remote workers?

REMOTE doesn't cover but the most basic possibility and 90 matches on this page make it quite cumbersome to find what suits you.

What about deprecating it and requiring posters to use instead:

REMOTE_WORLD - for telecommuting from anywhere in the world

REMOTE_US - for telecommuting from anywhere in the USA

REMOTE_US_TX - for telecommuting from anywhere in Texas, USA

REMOTE_MINUS_6 - for telecommuting from anywhere in the UTC-6 timezone, standard time

REMOTE_PLUS_1 - for telecommuting from anywhere in the UTC+1 timezone, standard time

Example: In the past, I telecommuted to Boston (US-MA) from Barcelona (ES). That job would have been advertised as "REMOTE_MINUS_5, REMOTE_WORLD". In fact I worked 3pm-11pm in ES (i.e. 9am-5pm in US-MA), which was certainly unusual but quite doable nonetheless.


> REMOTE doesn't cover but the most basic possibility and 90 matches on this page make it quite cumbersome to find what suits you.

Agree. Personally I don't care what the format is, but the postings should communicate any country/time zone/geo restrictions. That saves everyone's times.

I find it difficult no to love this young girl.


Clearly not the kind of women we need more in tech... well, we don't need fanatics anywhere really.


The PDF document lacks the last endnotes. 189 is the last one on page 28, but the endnotes list stops in the middle of 167.
