Your Code is My Hell | Virtuous Code
by night.kameBut here’s the dirty little secret of Rails development: the messiest, nastiest big-ball-of-mud code I have seen in my entire career has been in Ruby on Rails projects. I’ve seen Rails projects that accumulated enough technical debt and waste in two years to make 10 year-old C/C++ programs look clean and elegant by comparison. And it wasn’t just one project. I’ve seen it over and over.
C'est le pouvoir de la magie : plus le code est mystique, moins il est touchable.
