Schrödinger's Coder

A coder who calls his code "good" or bad depending on if people criticize it or not.

"My code is flawless and perfect"
*with one group* "Just joking, its complete ass"
*with another* "it's just perfect amirite"
"You're a total Schrödinger's Coder you know that right?"

Schrödinger's Code

Code that is never executed might be perfectly bug-free, or it might be spaghetti. Until it is built and a full suite of tests is run against it, there is absolutely no way to know which state it’s in.

John Doe: "Was that code ever run?"
Diana: "No..."
John Doe: "Then it's Schrödinger's Code"
