imagine deciding which engineers to keep around based on lines of code and choosing to keep the ones who wrote the MOST
at my old job, engineers would sometimes have LOC in the negatives and that was a point of pride
@molly0xfff I once worked for a boss who I didn't know was monitoring LoC.
One day I was super productive & deleted 200 lines. That led to a fun conversation, after which we parted ways...
