Your Code Sucks and I Hate You
Some years ago a coworker of mine, Jonathan Lange, put out a paper on code review.
Some reviews are involuntary. These tend to happen late at night when a programmer is deciphering code in an obscure corner of the project, perhaps trying to fix a bug. These code reviews are often characterized by coarse language, angry comments and are generally unhelpful to the original author, who might not be fortunate enough to hear it.
Not only funny, but still relevant and helpful. Reread it this morning as I am on code review data, and needed a bit of a refresher on just what the hell I was meant to be accomplishing.
