To he who wrote the java programs I have to maintain: I curse your name 10 times daily. I curse you for having different stuff checked in to version control than is actually in production. I curse you for inventing your own stupid inscrutable templating system. I curse you for not leaving any comments in your code. I curse you for leaving some parts of your application calling a test database and others calling a production database. I curse you for naming methods f2, f3, f4, f5, f6, f7, f8, f9 etc but also for having a method named fl which in my editor is indistinguishable from f1 I curse you for the critical javascript functions called blah and blah2. I curse you for leaving me a java class with 3000 lines. I curse you for naming things ShowBean and MenuBean when they aren't really beans at all. 7:39:06 PM    comment []
