Hemingway used to say "Write drunk, edit sober." I've modernized that a bit for my own personal philosophy:

Code drunk. Debug drunk. Merge drunk.

Yeah, we've been meaning to talk to you about that.

Isn't it the inverse of that? And Hemingway always struck me as more of a "write drunk, edit buzzed" guy

Yup, I messed it up. I edited my post to be the correct way around.
