I recently found out that code I wrote 15 years ago on a whim because I was frustrated about some inaccuracy in a rendering pipeline is the basis for one of the major components of a multi million user application.

I wrote that code on top of 10 year old code.

I’m sure it has changed over the years, but at some layer both my code and the now 25 year old code I based it on live on.

Most of the code I write is garbage the day I write it. I agree most of it will be unused in 30 years.

But some of it lives on, and you likely won’t know it when you write it.

I hope you've got a credits for that code :)
