    Which is why making code readable is so very important. Our juniors and students will think we’re ridiculous, when we spend a long time cleaning up some code or choosing the least misunderstandable name for a type. But you fuck that up and then others, as well as your future self, will be wasting many more minutes misunderstanding what your code does.

    It’s thing! Omni-man says ‘thing’, not ‘part’. I’ve seen this meme format for a few years now and I’ve only just realised it’s a misquote after watching the show. Completely irrelevant nitpick I know but some people might appreciate it.
