My wife seems to think Crocs are suitable safety shoes when working with machinery in the garden.

If you know how the code does something, you also know what it does.

Absolutely, although I see that as part of why

I was a bit surprised by the wine in Sweden. I sometimes feel like an outcast with my wine on AWs and other outings. It seems that most people around me prefer beer. Maybe it's a matter of selection bias since I tend to be around the same group of people.

Comments should explain "why", the code already explains "what".

I hate that my government (Sweden) is a driving force behind this.

I understand that you jest, but risk is not only about odds. When you calculate risk you also want to consider the severity of failure not only likelihood. If you risk shitting out your liver you want better odds than if you just risk feeling a bit I'll for a bit.
