after spending all day in a scrum planning meeting, i really wanted to fill out the survey but as soon as i read "how much of your time is spent" i ran away screaming. seriously, though, i'm interested to see what comes out of this. what ap

i find "visualize process not outcome" extremely effective, both in sports and in doing things i don't want to do.

"retirement is boring" is only true if the current way you spend your free time is boring. i love my free time and i know from experience that having more of it simply allows me to learn and achieve more of what i want. maybe these hobbies

would love to see benchmarks on speed. instrumenting code can significantly slow it down, yet reproducing production errors can be difficult so this would be cool to run all the time....if it weren't significantly slow, possibly via customi

i think this occurs regardless of gender. extreme feelings, be they lust or jealousy or whatever, can trump reason. pretty obvious fact of being human.

i think you'll find more success with Facebook-like thinks if you Think about it less, by which i mean don't strategize or mull over it. try acting from your instincts on what feels right in your core. you'll find yourself taking more hones

unfortunately it's not always easy to recognize when a programmer is doing the right thing, because then things are running smoothly. it can seem like the programmer isn't special because hey, it's easy to read the manual, etc, whereas goin

You ask good questions. The right solution depends on the problem; it's difficult for me to disagree with your conclusions when I don't know the problem domain or framework around which your examples exist. Maybe we work on fundamentally di

off the top of my head: dynamic dispatch is a great way to re-use code, assuming the subclasses really have a "is-a" relationship. this makes for a double whammy in terms of extensibility, since not only is the code literally more conducive

it's hard to pin down what "programming" is. there are a variety of things that "programmers" must do, from designing algorithms and system abstractions, to writing implementations in quirky languages under real-world constraints. if progra

is anyone commenting here female? or have anecdotes with respect to how women are effected? i'm particularly curious because of the physical and hormonal changes that a woman goes through with respect to child birth and breast feeding, etc.

actually that is a benefit. your friends know which Pizza Hut you are referring to. no one else necessarily knows what country/state/city you're in (this may be pieceable together from other things you say, but that's quite different than e

i love it when a metro system goes the distance. what with bikes, buses and feet, getting around a city isn't a big deal. however, getting a 1 or 2 hr drive away from the city is a huge deal. having a cheap and convenient way to get to th
