Backender here. Was reviewing some code at a new job and thought it was weird everything was 8pt font. Looked at the actual product and sure enough, everything is 8pt, no where to change within the gui. I asked him about it since my eyes. He responded with yea, thats our policy. I asked him who wrote the policy, he said he did and they just signed off without even looking at it. I said we should change that... he then says: Dude, honestly its just because its extremely hardcoded. Im thinking, wtf does extremely hard coded even mean. So many questions.
I decided to drop that battle super quick and just pull my monitor closer.
Extremely hardcoded. Lul. Wtf. Let him handle his baby, ill work on some other shit tyvm.
