Could there be a separate subreddit, say, /r/programmingjobs, for stuff like this? Because I don't really give a damn. I've had a job in programming before. Once. The experience was so terrible that I never plan to leave the cozy comfort of academia ever again. I'm still interested in programming and programming langu...

I've noticed people who rip on Tiobe never seem to produce much in the way of counter evidence. While people who don't are able to bring up supporting points like google trends, job sites etc.. If such evidence exists it would be nice to see it for once. Without something more than the usual rant from people who...

I was told by a friend a long time ago that `//todo` or `//this is shit write better code later` just means you'll be maintaining whatever kludgery you wrote years later because a dozen other things were built on top of it.

I always think about the original designer of the modern video game consoles. Apparently, as I remember it, he had taken such meticulous notes that he was able to be fired. I always try to keep that in mind when I'm futureproofing everything. Though, it also seems that many businesses are too ignorant to tell if you're...

I think the rationale for not providing a `size()` function is that it would make it really easy to do really bad things.
