So, get smarter by reading a lot and thinking a lot. What a scoop!

It's sort of like the games where the graphics are also done by the guy writing the code, resulting in fun but ugly games. There's no shame in that. You gotta work with what you got. I for one would rather have great software and

If you make your living as a programmer you most certainly want to be thinking like one. Those patterns, best-practices, design principles, preference for static typing etc. all matter when you are paid to develop systems that perform well,

Having tested http://jd.benow.ca/ I must admit it seems to do a near perfect job. Impressive and scary at the same time.

Lets stop watering down the genius label. It should require more than a modicum of ingenuity and intellect to be called a genius.

But.. that can be said about any java (jar) programs class files. It is also not difficult to decipher the asm of a disassembled exe file, but to equate that with finding the source code of the program would be disingenuous.

I don't know of enough places that use Nexus to say whether it is common practice or not, however we do not bundle jar files with sources at my place of employment where we do use Nexus. If we wanted to bundle sources into jar that wou

Nexus isn't a source code repository. What you found was their internal artifact server, i.e compiled jar files.

The response is unprofessional juvenile in that it publicly calls out and shames the customer. He should just take the site down until payment is received.

You need some way of documenting your skills. A degree in CS is the most common, and probably easiest way, of doing that.

Given that you have a masters degree in music I would wager it would take me a very long time to get to your level in playing, writing and understanding music. It's doable of course, but I would have a lot of learning and work ahead of me.

How does a musician without any formal CS education and a admitted lack of understanding of some very fundamental software things, such as pointers and memory, land a San Francisco dev job? I thought those jobs were in very high demand

Isn't this "the Unix way"? I have seen this style of small cohesive programs promoted a lot in Linux/Unix literature so the advise isn't really breaking any new ground. Look at git for instance. The advise is of course sound but it goes aga

In my experience C and C++ development are becoming more and more niche skills. Sure operating systems are written in those languages but I would call that a niche. And a small one at that. Then there is the embedded world, of course embedd

His argument now seems to be that you have to use C for speed. In my experience that doesn't necessarily hold true anymore, given modern computer architectures and what JIT compilers are capable of. I have several times written something in

But that's why you start by writing the tests and then evolve the test and the production code in parallel, so that you don't end up with code that is hard to test. I don't think that just because something is testable means that the design
