There is nothing more permanent than a temporary solution that works

[-] dan@upvote.au 11 points 6 months ago

In my first month at my current employer, I added some temporary code with a TODO to fix it properly. That was 11 years ago in 2013, and the same TODO is still there today, and these days it'd be significantly harder to do it. ๐Ÿ˜‚

If it gets comitted to master, TODO means never do.
