![]() So then when they get digitised people don't want to move to a new system, or more likely you can't even change it because the hospital(s) are running two systems at once for a while. ![]() I don't know how old the system is, but /u/bundabrg maybe it's because of this? If I give you a ton of drawers filled with patient details and tell you "find this patient", then if the records were assigned this sort of string, it would be very easy for you to narrow it down to a few records. It sounds like it was originally a paper implementation, in which case this sort of string representation can be incredibly efficient. they have a database, where one of the tables is literally one field consisting of 128 chars, then they have subdivided that field into subfields? /r/hardwaregore for hardware malfunctions./r/softwaregore for software malfunctions./r/deftruefalse - for intentionally bad code./r/shittyprogramming - Q&A with shitty programmers./r/itsaunixsystem - over the top and bad code in TV shows and movies./r/programminghorror - stories about horrible programming./r/ProgrammerHumor - programming humour.Explain why you think the code is bad in the comments, that way a discussion on good and bad ways to do what your code snippet does can start.Don't post huge snippets unless it's all terribly amusing. Provide just enough code so that we know what's going on.If you have a language that whatever paste bin your using doesn't support, try picking a similar dialect. Enable syntax highlighting appropriately.Your post will not be removed because of any of these, we'll like you more if you follow them though. See something particularly sinister from something like the IOCCC? Probably OK to post. Do not post intentionally obfuscated code.Do not post snippets in esoteric languages.This sub is about bad code, not the people who write it. We all write bad code, and a lot of it is hilarious. If you want to share the context put it in the comments or title. Use flair to mark the language of your post instead. ![]() For example, do not make your title something along the lines of " #defines everywhere!", instead try simply "#defines everywhere!". Do not put the name of the language inside of the post title.To see reasoning behind each of these rules, check out the wiki. Your post may be removed if you deviate from these rules. Copy code to a paste bin first ( gist highly preferred). Post the most terrible code you can find. This is a subreddit where you can share such terrible code and let other programmers have a nice laugh. Most of us programmers have laughed quite a bit when we went back to look at our past code because it was rather terrible. ![]() We also accept submissions of code from hobbyist projects or from learners. Ideally this means code that made it to production in a commercial context, but not exclusively so. r/badcode is a subreddit for highlighting real world examples of terrible code. ![]()
