Code Trailing

"Code Trailing" is a relatively new phenomenon in the software industry and primarily occurs in an agile environment. It occurs when worker A is working on a new task 1 and worker B comes from behind and modifies worker A's work on task 1 without worker's A permission to "be helpful" to worker A.

Code Flash

A term most commonly used by programmers and Game Devs to describe a sudden realisation on the solution of a problem or mistake in their coding.

"Thomas was in the shower wondering about a problem in his game when suddenly he Code Flashed figured out how to Finnish that character creator."

code debt

Code debt refers to the code clutter and required system maintenance accumulated over time during software development, especially when done in haste. The time required to clean up clutter and perform maintenance accrues as the development progresses, like interest on a regular debt, and must be paid down at some point to keep the project healthy.

We've been developing this open source project for a year, but with all the TODOs and commented out code, we probably have another years worth work to pay down the code debt!
