I've been writing code for over three decades.
I've discovered that there is a "time factor" for all of my code: the time between when I write it, and when I become disgusted with it. Sometimes it's mere minutes, sometimes it's years. But it always hits eventually. So, while I can point to some very clever code I've written, I'm pretty sure that it's just too early in the sliding time window for me to be disgusted with it instead.
