Greetings !

TODOs always share the same fate : they get forgotten and wander the code until the project dies. Unless you have the required mental resilience to stop the urgent work to fix your TODOs once a week, this is gonna happen.

Here's how I'm dealing with TODOs:
1/ I instantly remove them.
2/ I force myself to fix them right now, when possible, If not, I'll have to live without.

At least, it works for me.

JM

Note : fixing the TODO right now is efficient as you don't need to switch your working context a few weeks later.
