Wait areBooleanEqual returns false when they are equal?

This actually made me laugh, thank you.

That's not even the worst part. What the fuck does a function named Compare_anything do? Does it return anything? It sounds like nothing but a side effect.

[–] idunnololz@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago

Usually comparison functions are supposed to return an integer and are usually useful for sorting. However this one returns a bool so it's both useless and terribly named.

The unnecessary and confusing functions are horrible, yes, but I'd still say that the fact that they're wrong is the "worst" part.
