I, Moron

Oh it's not imagination, I have known coders who thought they had removed some code with embarrassing output, but it made it into production code. Fortunately it was in a rarely accessed part of the code and we found it and got it fixed before end users actually saw it. I now keep telling fellow programmers to not put in in the code unless they want the end users to see it. Inevitably, some of that stuff will make it into production code. :sigh:
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

cursing in code - [edit]but never with Output to the Client Interface[/edit] - is a way for me not to curse out loud.. i do this at home Office when i´m absolutely alone with myself and no one can hear me. my cursings are definitely not for kid-sister´s ears nor for any others... (i tend to loose my political correctness e.g.) so the only way for me to avoid instant embarrasing situations is when i curse silently in code... bad Habit, i know... :sigh:

I always thought that shouting and swearing at some stubborn code which insists on doing what I told it to, not what I want it to, was the only way to make it work! :rolleyes:

i once thought that too, but after a short period of time i thought following the above described path would do the trick... It doesn´t... :| :rolleyes:

As long as the cursing is limited to the comments it is safe. Unless you show the source code to a client. ;)

Yes, my opinion, too. i am convinced, that "distracting" output to the Client can be a reason for instant dismissal... not good... :^) edit: oh,no. as far as i´m concerned, no Client was/is/will be looking into the codebase...:cool:

i was in rage, i had no time for "Peanuts"... :rolleyes:

I am afraid I must deny this. To be exact, I did not notice anything, but it could be me.

Hi :-) Found this Little gem in our codebase:
public static class volldepp
{
public static string getRant()
{
return "Moron";
}
}volldepp is german and i - with my Little knowledge - would translate it to bleeding fool/moron... it´s a "self-produced gem"...i must have been really pissed of by my own stupidity while coding... :~ :sigh: :rolleyes: edit: the Point is, btw, i can´t even remember writing that class... :confused:

Maybe you didn't. :) Maybe you left the office without locking the workstation and somebody did it for you. That recently became a tradition in my office. :)

:omg: :wtf: I guess one does not need to have enemies if there are mates, that do such "funny" things... ;) No, here´s no doubt, I am the creator of this sophisticated class... :-\ ;)
