    Let him play in the legacy code. You can just hose him off later before letting him back into the office so he doesn’t track it everywhere.

      Commenting well is a highly advanced skill. I generally prefer no comments on code since it’s less likely to confuse people and I’ll merrily purge auto-doc comments and anything like

      // getId() returns an id

      That comment has negative value.
