Cute mainstream article that gives the ignorant masses a phony Hollywood view of what it's like to be a programmer. A real day in the life of a rockstar/ninja/whatever isn't so glamorous: - Review actual results of Run #27 and compare to expected results. Isolate 4 discrepencies. - Scour through 1200 lines of code, looking for obvious flaws that would have produced 4 discrepencies. - Isolate functions and run new test. - Enter debugger and enable trace checkpoints. - Realize it's been 6 hours since you farted. Fart. - Revise test data and run again. - Modify checkpoints and build fresh logs. - Add 9 more outliers to test cases. - Put logs on another session. Find glasses. - Grab a soda and some chips. Read the source code again. - Call wife. Have dinner without me. - Run one more test. Still have discrepencies. - Realize the expected results were calculated wrong and your program was right all along. You ninja. Log off.
