@da_667 i get the impression there are very few companies / people who work at said companies who still care about code quality. you don't get different pay for writing trash than you do writing high quality maintainable code, so why bother?

and it's probably closed source so it's not like anyone in the future is going to attribute the trash you wrote to you anyway, except for the future suckers at the company stuck with it. but people switch jobs every few years for actual raises, so there's no consequences.
