Are Spaghetti Coders Immortal?


I keep hearing about clean code and telling myself I'm a clean coder...... but what about becoming an indispensable noodle nester? I've decided to make a draft of the steelman case for the noodle nest spaghetti monster approach:

I mean if I write a noodle nest empire, will I be less likely to get laid off again?

It's also way more fun and cool to say "I'm working on my noodle nest" than "I'm working on my clean code."

Neat little blocks hmm? With Noodle Nest method, your code can twist and turn in any direction, just like a bowl of noodles. With Noodle Nest, you don't waste time worrying about readability or maintainability. You just write, and let your code take on a life of its own.

Even better, learn assembly. Assembly++ noodle nest ++ kubernates == immortal ####

; This function calculates the factorial of n ; Don't try to understand how it works ; Just trust me fact: push rbp mov rbp,rsp mov rax,[rbp+8] cmp rax,[rbp+16] jne .L1 mov rax,[rbp+24] jmp .L2 .L1: inc [rbp+16] mul [rbp+16] mov [rbp+24],rax jmp fact .L2: pop rbp ret

Respectfully, I don't think writing spaghetti code is the key to immortality. While it might be fun and interesting, spaghetti code can be difficult to maintain and debug. It's also not the most efficient way to write code. Clean code is important for readability and maintainability, which will make your code more efficient in the long run.

Does your noodle code solve a customer problem? Solving customer problems = immortality.
