I've been writing software full time (well -- for values of "full time" that apply to the job...) for about seven years now and it's interesting to compare my old code to my new code. I've always followed the BSD style(9) guide religiously so the "look" of my code hasn't changed much. I've evolved a lot more "architecture" though. In the process, I've also gone from perhaps over-commenting to under-commenting. Writing code is as much a task of habit as is anything else, I suppose.

La differenza è che il mio relatore m'ha detto di infischiarmene del codice e che potevo anche cercare qualcuno che lo scrivesse al posto mio, se necessario. A lui interessavano solo i risultati dei test e la relativa interpretazione. Spaghetti code forever, quindi! :) Esattamente il mio stesso problema.
