A comment on Show HN: FunctionKit – Approachable functional concepts brought to Swift. Parent comment
Ok, let’s be extremely optimistic and say you fix 25 functional purity bugs a day and you’ve been fixing impure code for twenty years.
$0.01/bug * 25 bugs/day * 250 working days/year * 20 years = $1,250.
I guess that $1,250 could be rich to some, but I do think making a quarter per full day of fixing bugs doesn’t seem like a great way to get there.
