i think programmers need a self inflicted rule of it being less than 500 lines of code means you need to write it instead of using a pre written package/library.

On the other hand, we could make the packages like is-number the worst possible way of checking if something is a number, which would be really fucking funny...

I have read programs a lot shorter than 500 lines which I don't have the expertise to write.

Shell scripts don't count

That's not a programming language, that's hieroglyphs

well obviously shit like wozmon exists, but there definitely needs to be a rule to prevent handicap shit like "is-number"

the vast majority of programmers have the problem solving capability of a child who took shit apart constantly due to autism.
