     37You don't have a genius memory (specially me), so you can't remember exactly ''what this code exactly does'' or ''why this thing is there'', a good way to avoid that is by adding comments but sometimes you forget to do that or they are not sufficient, in most of the cases you think that you don't need this part of the code, or that should be an old not-needed-anymore element or similar things, what I personally do for accelerate the development process and not think on it on that moment is to add on this step a function called named ''step_requires_fixme message'', which basically runs me a prompt/shell if i come to this state of the code asking me what I'm doing here or to verify something
