Given a couple of lines of code, I can predict with an 80% accuracy which of my team mates wrote it.

    Is the other 20% when you wrote it?

    Been feeling this way a lot recently. Having worked with this team for the past 6 months or so, here are my "heuristics" if you will,

    1. If the code screams "amateurish" with terrible CSS that would only work on one particular screen size and needs magic margins in order to work, it's exhibit A.

    She's one hell of a specimen with a terrible attitude. Intentionally overestimates the amount of time to deliver her features, manages to go way overdue past her own committed deadlines and acts like it's everyone else's problem in her passive aggressive way.

    2. If the code is a recondite labyrinth of interconnecting files, organized ad nauseam, it's exhibit B. A nice albeit no nonsense guy. In fact, he'd probably have a sit down with me for having talked shit about Ex A if he saw this.

    3. If the code is 40% working code, 60% apology statement for the code in the form of didactic comments and docstrings, throw in a couple README files, that's unquestionably me lmao
