Fixable

Posted on:August 06 2009

This week I used an editor and had to make some changes with it in a small project. It was a repeating task with a lot of small changes and at the end of each iteration the editor did a tiny small thing different from what I was expecting it to do. Nothing big, but after each change, it became more annoying.

At the 5th or 6th edit, this glitch became really annyoing and I wanted to scream angrily: "What stupid lame programmer wrote this f*cking part of that editor!?"

This was when I stopped, and remembered: "OMG. That was me."
In fact, I had implemented that part of the editor years ago and it was totally my fault. Too bad.
At least I was able to fix this problem afterwards :)

Indeed. Sometime I prefer to rewrite the whole code of any project instead restrict myself with some old design issues. Why should be like project code married? :)
I even remember one situation when rewrote one project only for one week compared to several months with the first solution;
