There is nothing more permanent than a temporary solution that works
In my first month at my current employer, I added some temporary code with a TODO to fix it properly. That was 11 years ago in 2013, and the same TODO is still there today, and these days it'd be significantly harder to do it. ๐
If it gets comitted to master, TODO means never do.
