First version I saw of that one on twitter was about finding rare bugs in the wild. Which oddly fit looking at the PR.

Among all of them at least python is the choice generically people learn when they don’t want to learn programming, just want to program stuff as a helper tool to manage data. For those, python is just fine and the learning material around is tailored to for that.
That’s how you trick people into programming. You then see people making scripts that take days to run, but it’s fine, they’re only going to use it twice and are busy enough to be able to wait
3 months… Are you including weekends?
You know it’s comming.
I like tokyotosho.inf but I think they all track the same
It’s fine, I wouldn’t want to work with someone who enjoys being forced to comment every line.
I hope they get paid per line of code.
Reminds me of a job I had where c# summaries were mandatory and people used a documentation generator just like that.

I’m with you but sometimes you don’t have the chance in low level. Max you can do is create local variables just so the bits you’re XORing are more obvious. And whenever you’re working with something where that’d be wasteful and the compiler doesn’t rid if it, you’re better off with comments (which you need to maintain, ugh)
Good code is self documenting as in you don’t need to describe what it is doing and it is clear to read. Whoever says that and isn’t just repeating what they heard understands that whenever you are doing something not explicit in the code it should be on a comment.
Workarounds and explaining you need to use this structure instead of another for some reason are clear examples, but business hints are another useful comment. Or sectioning the process (though I prefer descriptive private functions or pragma regions for that).
It also addresses the hint that the code should be readable because you’re not going to have comments to explain spaghetti. Just a hint, doesn’t prevent it. Others also said it, comments are easier to get outdated as you don’t have the compiler to assist. And outdated comments lead to confusion.
I was confused for a bit but then I remembered the bigger Portuguese.
In mine it’d sound more like Eh, booed. And it’s an uncommon word.
They didn’t manage, they’ve just offer good enough for you not to care. In case of movies or series you care because they are a lot more limited
