Man spends entire career mastering crappy codebase
Honest question: how many HN'ers have worked on a codebase they considered non-crappy?<p>Or, put a better way, for all the codebases you have worked with, how many were crappy and how many were not?<p>I'm increasingly convinced that there does not exist a large codebase in actual use that isn't crappy in some way or another.
