A friend of mine has this really great way of looking at complex code, both around regular expressions and like parallelism. He says you're often writing code right at the limit of your understanding of code or your ability to write complex code. And so your writing code, you literally can't debug. So maybe maybe don't go quite that far, right? Yeah, I think you should always try to make code as simple as possible because debugging and profiling will be much less fun if you try to be as clever as possible. Clever code is not so clever when it's your bug to solve later.
