Well over a decade ago I remember a coworker would just go through the codebase and add his own coding style.

Instead of if (predicate) {

He would do if ( predicate )

I would always ask why he did it and he said, “well we don’t have any coding standards so I’m going to do it” … I replied, “there’s things like unwritten rules and sticking to whatever’s in the codebase makes it easy”. I told the seniors and they chose not to do anything (everyone just merged into trunk) and they just left him for a while.

Then he turned rewrote built-in logical functions in code like this: if (predicate || predicate) {

Into code like this: if ( or( predicate, predicate ) ) {

This was C# and there was no Prettier back then.

Also, he would private every constructor and then create a static factory method.

Eventually the seniors told him to knock it off. All I said was that I initially tried telling them weeks ahead of time and now we got a mess on our hands.

lol, that could be apart of that meme:

you care so little that you made a meme about it

I care so little that I don’t even know what you are talking about

We are not the same.

Stupid question, what’s wrong with organic?

Meh, screw Assange. Don’t want his or his visitors rights violated though. But sincerely, fuck this Russian asset.
