>>465179 I've seen complaints about that on Slashdot, but I don't think it happens much irl, at least as far as not understanding the code goes. It's more likely managers fucking up by not giving the programmer enough time to do his job, so the only thing he can do is copy-paste code snippets until he gets something, anything, that compiles and runs and mostly does the job. If the same programmer were given enough time to code from scratch the output would be way better. >>465181 There aren't enough users for every post to go to its specialized board you moron. The whole site would fall apart from insufficient response if everyone did that.
