The evolution of a coder
-
As I've matriculated as a coder I've noticed several watershed moments in my development of the craft. It has to do with what I typically swear at. Over the years, I've gone from primarily swearing at the languages for not having what I want To primarily swearing at the compiler for not doing what I want To primarily swearing at my IDE and toolchains for breaking :)

I'm simple folk. I just swear at Microsoft for screwing with developers in the last 10+ years.

You've still got ways to go before you're at my level. I'm primarily swearing at myself for my solution from last year :laugh: All in all I'm just swearing a lot.

She will not! Because Codewitch code is perfect right of the bat as soon as finished at day 8,845. Before that it is still in progress, so imperfections are fine and replaced by obsessive compulsive progressively minute improvements... ;P

I can surely attest to the IDE part. No MDI code windows without getting into a fistfight with the IDE. No built in user recorded macros, had to find an add-on. I could go on...

Soon you'll be swearing at old code (by some anonymous coder)... :laugh:

Hm, for the first 15 or so years of my career I was an assembly language programmer (embedded engineer). Really couldn't swear at the language or the assembler. There was no IDE so no swearing there. After C/C++ became a viable option for embedded work, I was able to swear at the IDE's (mostly the debugger). Over all in my career, most of my swearing has been at management.

They've been at it for far longer than just the last 10 years.
Obviously :D But roughly 10 years ago, they made it their mission :D

I went from doing stuff the way it's been done before, assuming there is genius there I'm just too inexperienced to recognize, to recognize unmaintainable rat's nests for what they are, questioning everything, from architecture to workflows.
