When people says you are good in programming they mean you will clear the exam easily.
But they don't know there is a art of writing code.
And if you stuck in the code then there is a art of debugging the code.
Who knows the both is a good programmer.2 -
What is it with certain colleagues who "wanna write C, not C++"
Motherfucker if I see another malloc in the code I will physically asssault you.
Like damn we're failing to teach people C++ badly when a newcomer from university, who had 2 semesters of "C++" doesn't even understand RAII.
And how in gods name do software engineers with *decades* of experience get so stuck on old technologies?
Like I've seen them write 3 nested try-catch to make sure a delete is called or some mutex is unlocked....
If youre in the position of teaching others C++, please stop teaching C first.25 -

Randomly reviewing a coworker's c++ codebase revealed he was locking at the beginning of a critical section, but explicitly calling unlock for each and every error-handling branching within it. And yes, he forgot to unlock at several places.
That's just not RAIIght. -
For me its a good night sleep and have a strict rule not to work from home/not-working-location. It will make the window of working time more focused.2

Still remember my first year of university, listening to the full professor (i. e. she has a frickin PhD). She couldn't explain the difference between ++i and i++. When I tried to tell her what they meant, she dropped this gem: "oh, I just wrap them in parentheses to be safe so it makes no difference which one I use."
Luckily, future profs were much better.1 -
