I actually use Wing IDE, which takes me to the offending line automatically. But in some cases you get a traceback through indirect means (e.g. server error log, print statement from a separate process) and then you have to go to the file&#

I think I should avoid naming them; this essay caused enough flames already.

Even in my open-source project, where I make all the decisions, I have to work with technologies that annoy me. If you want to actually ship working software, you have to make some compromises.

I'm a programmer who is very very selective in the technologies I work on, and I'm working on my own open-source project that I'm the only developer of. I can choose whichever technologies I like. But still I have to use technologies and to

I understand that many people read my essay as if I was trying to judge who is a good programmer and who isn't. That wasn't my intention-- I just wanted to reflect on a problem that good programmers have.

"But work on something bigger - something you believe in - which gives you a big-picture outlook" What is this "something bigger" and how is it any better than the goal of "living a nice, comfortable, intellectually-satisfying life"?

Someone who insists too much on perfection is a bad programmer, like in the example you gave. Someone who doesn't insist enough on perfection is also a bad programmer.

I love Wing too. Now, how is $180 for the Pro version not cheap?

No one here said the Palestinians don't have a good reason for doing suicide bombings. We'll all just be happier if they'll have a good economy so they'll stop blowing up.

Looks good, I'll be checking out the NeoSmart stuff. The question is if there are more people like you there. I think you can find a good programmer in any region, but there needs to be a good amount of them in order to create something sub

I am sure they exist, but the fact I didn't hear of any cool ones says a lot. I never see a cool "Show HN" start-up which is from the Muslim middle-east. And to remind you, we are talking about the entire Muslim middle-east here, with >

I think there's no talent there because: 1. I never knew a Palestinian developer on any mailing list or other forum. 2. I never knew of any software or technological product developed in Palestine. 3. I never knew of any notable developer o

I wonder, why are they doing this? I mean, the reason tech companies go to Israel is because there's an enormous concentration of talent there. Why would they go to Palestine? I don't think there's any talent there. Is this a humanitarian t

Final sentence: We cannot take this sitting down. This must not be allowed to stand. So... We let it sit down, and we have to stand?
