Sometimes things do go your way
(feddit.de)
Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
The new version isn't backward-compatible and now you've got to re-write your whole project.
Conversely: The new version requires you write it with a different word that makes more sense, so you do an search and replace in a few files and get done with it and nothing breaks.
If you edit code with find/replace, you need a better IDE. Just a hint.
I'm aware, and I do use a good IDE, but I'm simplifying the operation here for the punch line.
