Results of code review of false.c: * Use of undocumented magic numbers (1) * No use of getter/setter pattern * Inflexible design (datatype of result is fixed, no template pattern implemented) * Manual memory management (no garbage coll

Great ! Now the GIMP team will use this opportunity to create their own version of a "domain". I will look & work mostly like all other domains, but just mostly. Like you will not be allowed to directy save a change to its st

Yeah, it's alway funny to see the reaction of fresh-from-the-mill CS-academics when they have to code in an MISRA regulated project for the first time. Around half of them quits after a month because they are unable to write 100 lines

At least every 2nd C programmer working on a non-unix platform has been burned by this at least once. It's like a 10ft deep pothole on Broadway that won't get fixed because traditionalists see it as a 'national monument&#x27

Well, that comes from the Garbage Collector, cleaning after all the programmers to lazy think about resource usage. But hey, never mention this when together with Java-developers, because saying something critical about garbage collection i

Why so many people hate Java ? Let's start with the fact that it installs an auto-update system that tries everthing it can to trick you into installing adware (ask-bar).

If uint16_t really is a signed 15bit value under VS2013, somebody in the compiler development department has a great sense of humor.

Yes, mainly because new sword has an auto-grinder welded to it that might start running at any given moment, even if you are in a deathly fight :-)

>What do you do when your error logging code reports a failure? Keep trying to log the same error, or do you begin trying to log the error that you can't log errors anymore? First you try to fix the problem of the logging system by

Great, so now that he explained to us how to use strings for human readable text, the last missing bit is a blogpost telling the author how to choose the colors for letters & background. What's the sense in optimizing string usag

20 years ago, during the peak of the CASE hype, there used to be several others.Borland ObjectVision, IBM VisualAge, Siemens EasyCase were some of them. Problem of all this tools is: It's proven that they don't scale. The sampl

So, what you say is: I don't care to implement an efficient solution, because the CPU cache will fix it anyway. That way of thinking is well known as "The Java way of problem solving" (TM)
