This is virtually the same thing with a different keyword, I'd like to hear where you (and the down voters) draw the line.

goto is used in C for this exact kind of early return management. The person you answered to does not maintain code I think

And I'm going to make you read those blocks because they are there for a damn reason. What are you even reading at this point if you're not reading the preconditions? That's how you end up dereferencing null pointers, when you have ten nested ifs you can barely see it on your screen

I don't understand what "appeal to emotion" you're talking about.

You seem to project given what you wrote in your second paragraph however, given that's not even remotely relevant to the conversation here. I hope you're not ever in charge of anything that matters.

If you think disabling or weakening safety features after multiple attempts is OK, there is nothing left to discuss with you on this topic.

Please read the comment I was originally answering to.

That's called accountability and that's why engineers get paid extra. Ethic classes are not the part of engineering degrees in the USA very obviously, I shouldn't be surprised

Iran was virtually only a British (and a bit Russian before that) problem. Although you're right in the general case, of course

Why should this be a surprise?

I'd call that an actual improvement.

Salariés are thrice are high in the usa, and rent is probably twice the amount. Munich is definitely cheaper than cali. They could have also moved to a cheaper place within the USA, however. Also local regulations don't apply to big company in the USA, Germany might require subtler bribing.

Also, software people are not unionised in Germany, despite many of us being proper engineers (i.e. with a title), meaning it should be very easy. Well, my current company let me understand I should avoid talking about even a Betriebsrat (= mini union) if I were to make a career there sooo... No need to worry about that. Probably why they're not moving to e.g. Paris. Good luck getting qualified people not covered by a "convention collective".
