Really enjoyed this post! Wholeheartedly agree about your stance on comments, they are just as important as the code.
It also made me think of a quote from a programming book I read in college, Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs by Harold Abelson
“Programs must be written for people to read, and only incidentally for machines to execute.”
If I'm ever a team lead I'm going to drive that point home in every code review and have my team members read this post.
Thank you, Andy! Absolutely agree on machines. Happy you liked the post!
