Old code

Name: Anonymous 2010-04-07 17:52

Do you ever look at code you wrote years (even months) ago and think, "Fuck me, this is shit"?

Is there a threshold age where anything older than that is guaranteed to suck, or is there a cutoff date after which code is generally up to your current standards?

A threshold age would indicate that you are still learning; any cutoff date will probably be when you finished (and fully understood all the concepts of) SICP.

I have a few fundamental rules for determining whether or not my code is shit:
1. Am I writing it now?
   If so, it is incomplete and therefore shit
2. Did I write it sometime in the past?
   It's shit.
