Comment LOC? LOL. (Score 1) 584
LOC/year is a stupid measure of productivity. If I write 5000 lines of code a year, and all of them are correct when I deliver them, does that make me half as productive as someone who delivers the same program in 8000 lines and then must rewrite 2000 lines to fix bugs (total of 10KLOC/year)?
It's typical of Suits to force a quantitative measure on something that's fundamentally unquantifiable so that they can measure and judge and compare without actually *understanding* what they're talking about. And it's sad when these bogus measures are used by management to promote people or by journalists to prove a point that's not there.
