On the 18th October 2021 I had to hastily write some magic numbers into our code.
I added a comment saying "TODO: add a damn enum to make this selection clear"

Today, I refactored this module... and I used a damn enum.

Good things happen – have a nice weekend yall

@asgs I usually add them for the code review, before merging I search the diff for "todo" and address them.

Or at least, I try to do that.

@nebula that sounds a lot more realistic
