That’s wonderful until you have a client asking why their pre-alpha demo that you forgot they had access to just called them a fuckwit.
Don’t ask me how I know that one :D
You too? First job, first production push (circa 1997)... a few days pass and support comes into my office with their hair on fire. "Customer is asking why the program is calling them a fucking idiot."
In a piece of code that it should have been impossible to hit, I'd put a dialog "Developer is a fucking idiot".
When I say impossible to hit, it was on the order of
if (a == null && a != null ){}. Or so I thought... turns out I'd miscounted the curly braces.
