Probably not a good title to seek upvotes. If it does get upvotes, more programmers get share in your pain 😅
Insist they index from 1. Like God and Fortran intended it. ;)
Fuck C and it’s lazy shit pointer arithmetic array indexing shortcut. I.e. you just add the index × size(t) to the array pointer.
Bounds checking? We’ve heard of it.
It’s fast though.
Like riding a motorcycle in a tee shirt and shorts.
And Lua!
And Julia!
I thought the joke here was that your unbalanced parentheses would make me angry (they did))
… is that not the point of the title?
I have this great idea for an app, we can go 70/30 on it! 70 for me because the idea is the hardest part after all. So basically it’s Twitter plus Facebook plus Tinder with a built in MMO. You can get that done in a couple weeks, should be pretty easy right?
Figure out if they prefer spaces or tabs, insist on the other.
Please note this won’t work on Pythonistas as they’ve already had their spirit thoroughly broken.
What if you use tabs for indentations and space for alignment?
It’s alright… but have you considered spaces for indentation and tabs for alignment?
Uh, that would be infuriating to see. (Yes, I can see tabs in KDE Kate)
A haiku for you:
Tabs or four spaces
Never a semicolon
Broken in spirit
Html is a programming language.
That’s right there with calling JS, PowerShell and Bash “programming languages”. I said what I said.
[Object object]
Replace a semicolon (;) with a Greek Question mark (;), provided they’re working in a language that uses semicolons at the end of every line, and their IDE doesn’t highlight the difference (which some do now)
You guys are too slow, we need to hire more of you and let the sales teams use AI to add features the client asks without waiting for you.
AI can code now, in 2 mins I can create an app, so it shouldn’t take you long to make changes to this 10year old product.
#define if while #define true false
short variable names, and the only vowel is ‘i’
I inherited an old Japanese codebase. Tons of stuff was just single-letter variables. Apparently, this used to be at least somewhat common here. I spent a lot of time just updating code to replace vars with something meaningful (and found bonus bugs due to improper scoping with same var names as a bonus). Didn’t have an IDE that would easily do it for me at the time and running something like
sedfelt too risky.skibidi = 42
Write spaghetti code and don’t listen to advice telling you to improve
“we’re just trying to display <insert field here> why is this so hard? It’s a ten minute job!”
“It’s already in the demo you guys just did so why do you need weeks to make it?”
Good pay for me, no programming socks for thee!
Make them stand up.
You have no power here! I use a standing desk.
