Antipatterns, Smells, and Worst Practices 💩😱
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Admin passwords sent in cleartext cookies on every request. Stack overflows caused not by recursion, but by too many local variable declarations. In many codebases, the most important metric isn't velocity or test coverage, but WTFs per hour. All these things and more I'll share with you in this session, so you can learn from history rather than repeat it.
