Programmers must never offer the option of bad code to managers who demand speed. Nobody goes faster when slogging through a mess. Messes slow everyone, and everything forever.

@unclebobmartin You don't live in the real world. Programmers who offered bad code got starry reviews. The naive programmer who listens to your advice got fired. The recruiters, after hearing his story, yell: "More humility! You barely have 3 years of experience, and you act as if you had 15!"

@ruby_object @unclebobmartin True story or...?
