Wait areBooleanEqual returns false when they are equal?

Don’t forget the invocation

if (CompareBooleans(a, b) == true)

Management: Gee whiz, we really have no idea how to gauge productivity to decide who gets promoted. We could manage. Or, better, we could just have someone write a script that pulls info from git on how many lines of code each person has written.

Programmers:

There’s no way, that’s so insane it has layers.

This is code after working 16 hours

"You aren't writing enough lines of code!" - Management

Two wrongs don’t make a right, but sometimes in programming, two bugs can cancel each other out.

Whoever wrote this is more than capable of using it incorrectly.

Is this part of Elons "How many lines of choice have you written?" interview?

Those are rookie lines of code numbers right there.
I would have done it without the ==

internal static bool AreBooleansEqual(bool orig, bool val)
{
    if(orig) 
    {
        if(val)
            return false
        return true
    }
    if(val)
        return true 
    return false
}

Don't know why their code returns false when they are equal but I'm not going to dig through old code to refactor to use true instead of false.

You can tell they're amateurs. It's not obfuscated enough. They won't be able to keep their job.

My guess to why there’s two functions is because it was originally only internal, and the programmer realized they needed public as well, but changing internal to public is too scary so they created a new method instead.

"We need to obfuscate our code to prevent reverse engineering"

The obfuscation in question:

Reminds me of is-even

If this were a Node module, I wouldn't even be surprised.

Clearly it should be return orig == val

Duh

I'm a bit disappointed there isn't a call to GetBooleanValue in there

!NOT

Who's there?

But how do you test for FILE_NOT_FOUND?

Where are the unit tests?

I misread it as CompareBolians. No more Star Trek memes for me today.
