I have to say, I'm getting more and more frustrated by the bad code I have to write due to bad business circumstances.

I want clean, readable code with proper documentation and at least a bit of internal consistency and not the shoehorned mess of hacks, todos and weird corner cases.

todos

I found a simple trick against this: just remove them. Accept it ain’t gonna happen man.

Well, yes, but the underlying issues still persist, so it's not exactly a sustainable strategy.

It’s mostly a joke, but often when I find todos they’re so old they’re no longer relevant.

Of course you shouldn’t blindly remove todos.
