> Cleverness makes you quit your job when the codebases pass 10k lines
I've very much felt that in codebases that are hundreds of thousands of lines of code.
Essentially it becomes: "Is it easier to track down this bug and fix it over a week or two (hopefully the solution isn't needed by tomorrow night), or is it easier to quit my job?"
Sometimes the answer unironically is the second option.
