And of course, let's adopt Rust's logic with our new "Borrow Nagger", or just "Everything Nagger". When it compiles your code, it analyzes it, sends it out to a Reddit group and collects the comments and displays them as warning and error messages. No one is saying they'll make any sense relative to code, but if you've used C++ and templates, you'll feel right at home. Abd of course, there's "syntax quality hightlighting", where we highlight your code in various colors based on what we think of the quality of it. Red = Really bad idea, Yellow, not good, but good for now, you'll refactor it later, green, good because you won't be at this job long anyway, and black on black or white on white if it's actually OK. (Per the comment on refactoring, there's probably a note on the pyramids 'Pharoh - yeah, this is a hack, but we were in a rush, we'll fix it later. Bandaids for now'
