The human typewriter, or why optimizing for typing is short-sighted

What I want to touch on in this post is the increased usage of auto and template type deduction that I’m seeing in newer codebases.

Data types deemed handy: auto edition

auto var type = lazy and chaotic; // might be handy, but as always only when used properly

M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I detest auto/var as declaration types. It makes the code a lot harder to debug six months later.
