    Can I, sure. Do I give af since my company doesn’t care about me as anything other than a number in a spreadsheet, no.

      Well, even for my private projects that I care about I end up having to rewrite every few years.

        That’s just the norm tbh. You learn new techniques, the language gets new optimizations, keywords and shortcuts. That doesn’t mean your code is unmaintainable.

          I rewrite it because it becomes a mess of asymmetric assumptions, weird dependencies and hacky extensions, I can’t really blame the language for that one.
