I should get to work on my opus, "Dirty Code"

Inside I'll reveal all my secrets like: not writing tests, not documenting anything, putting the whole app into a single python file, object-disoriented relational mapping, obscure SQL tricks, unobscure no-sql tricks, and more!

I'll steal this to shit talk about code; until git blame points to my past self

Just make sure the first chapter is dedicated to spaghetti, and contains various GOTO statements telling where the reader where to go shove it and other obscenities.

I hope your book won't have a table of context and those stupid indexes. If they read it, they should know where you mention topics, right? Tables of contents considered harmful! /s

I like "how to build APIs you won't hate".

I hope the tricks are only supported on kafka's ksql.

I read a book like this once! It was like, "how to code badly."

It was actually kinda fun.
