Hey list,

Greetings !

How do you do with your TODOs?

Regards,
Jordi

TODOs always share the same fate : they get forgotten and wander the code until 
the project dies. Unless you have the required mental resilience to stop the 
urgent work to fix your TODOs once a week, this is gonna happen.

Here's how I'm dealing with TODOs:
1/ I instantly remove them.
2/ I force myself to fix them right now, when possible, If not, I'll have to 
live without.

At least, it works for me.

Note : fixing the TODO right now is efficient as you don't need to switch your 
working context a few weeks later.


This, from the Zen of Python, seems applicable in this context.

Now is better than never.
Although never is often better than *right* now.
