For anything that doesn't seem entirely obvious I try to leave a comment. It could end up being helpful to me some time later, because let's face it: your code is indistinguishable from someone else's code 2 weeks after you commit it.
I've come to teach myself that I have no idea what "entirely obvious" is.
This function is 3 lines long why am I boggled by it right now? I should have written a commentWell, over time, you accumulate some judgment about things like that. But you have some point too.
Yeah, it's honestly mostly an issue of me dipping into programming and not properly sticking to it for long enough to wrap my mind around some concepts. I heard all the warnings that "learning to program is usually one of the hardest things someone has accomplished" because of how late we learn it and all the other complications. I also, however, have heard my whole life that I learned fast and picked things up easily. Boy oh boy was one of those messages more useful than the other lol
