Pretty funny. 20 hilarious programming jargon-phrases you should know when talking to engineers.[^] P.S. I did a search and did not find this. If it's a repost, then, "Oh well."

The Jeff Atwood version (the version your link cites) has come to me about 3 times now, including in the Lounge once or twice IIRC.

Yoda Conditions: When a programmer writes the conditions for a piece of code in the opposite order for which you would expect to normally read them. (Instead of saying if(variable == constant), the code says if(constant == variable).)
To me that is the best way of doing it; saves one mistyping == as = and creating other hard to find bugs.

Make toll free long distance calls from your smart phone with ACN Mobile World.
When connected via wifi, calls will not use any of your minutes or data, nor will there be any roaming charges.
Certain conditions apply. See my website for details.
Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

But you need to remember to do it and if you can remember to do it you won't make that mistake anyway -- pointless.

but it only helps if one of the two is a constant. if they're both variables, you're still vulnerable.

Most compilers/IDEs these days will spit out at least a warning for
if (alpha = bravo)
A couple I just tried (VC#, Netbeans/Java) complain about int -> bool conversion, Borland compilers warn "Possibly incorrect assignment". So, IMO, not such an issue any more. Peter.
