| Apr 19, 2011 at 16:08 | comment | added | anthonyvd | The problem in this case is probably the misuse of TODOs. I believe TODOs should be only used when the code is actually functional but improvements could be made later, so TODO: implement kind of comments should not exist and the fact that no one actually came back doesn't matter that much. Sadly, not a lot of people adhere to this rule and I totally agree I'd like to see a comment like you posted in some production code at some point. It'd make my day. | |
