When you look at code you wrote in the past, whether it is 1000 lines, 3000 or 100,000 you could always think of a way to remove the redundancies and such and turn it into a smaller number of lines.<p>But the first time you write it, the first time you are solving the problem, it is much harder to focus on that part.<p>This is not to say that it&#x27;s ok to have unmaintainable million lines of code application, but more that it is not something we willingly do to make ourselves look more important in a company.
