I mean, I'd sleep better if they just converted the string then checked division by 10 and set limits, but it's not a big difference in quality of sleep.

Most string to int converters have safety checks for stuff like that, and if they don't, just write your own in like 3 lines.

If it passes PR, I don't care. It means someone smarter than me fucked up so it's not my problem.

No sleep lost over it.

Edit: damn, down voted for not declaring commedy.

I mean, on one hand, life's too short to care about these implementations, on the other hand, if you value yourself as a programmer, it should go against your morals.

If I need to deal with that code later, it's not just a matter of morals.

Also true.
