I have shot myself in the foot on more than one occasion by failing to document a procedure or configuration I was sure I would remember.
Boy does that ever strike a nerve. Mainly in my own code.
I'll write a function with just a little bit of complexity, getting working perfectly, and build all kinds of stuff on top of it. Three months later I need to add something to it, but I don't understand what I wrote.
I'm the biggest stickler on variable naming and self-documenting code and yet, I still keep doing it to myself. Oh well, always room for improvement.
