我正在对初级(也许是高级)软件工程师所犯的常见错误和错误假设进行一些研究。
你坚持时间最长、最终被纠正的假设是什么?
例如，我误解了整数的大小不是标准的，而是取决于语言和目标。说起来有点尴尬，但事实就是这样。
坦率地说;你有什么坚定的信念?你大概坚持了多长时间?它可以是关于一种算法、一种语言、一个编程概念、测试，或者任何关于编程、编程语言或计算机科学的东西。

我通过阅读K&R自学了C。不幸的是，我没有逐字逐句地读，肯定漏掉了一些东西。我编写了我自己的malloc和calloc版本，我在不同的工作中都随身携带，因为我不知道你可以只链接现有的库。我这样做了好几年，直到最后有人问我为什么要带着这些东西到处走，“嗯……你知道你可以直接链接现有的库，对吧?”

每个人都想为一个问题写出最好的、最合适的代码……
所有面向对象语言都有相同的面向对象概念。
Java接口=方法的接口。 Java接口是针对需要具有多重继承的特定于语言的解决方案。Ruby的mixin尝试解决同样的问题。 Javascript中提供的开箱即用的继承与Java实现继承的方式非常不同。
我记得我10岁的时候，有人让我相信，将来会有一种计算机能够在3秒内运行一个无限循环。
我仍然对以下的一些误解感到困扰——尽管我知道这些误解是正确的，但我仍然试图抓住它们不放:
All stakeholders will make decisions about software design objectively. Those that aren't embroiled in writing the code make all sorts of decisions based entirely on emotion that don't always make sense to us developers. Project budgets always make sense - I've seen companies that are quite happy to drop [just for example] $50,000 a month for years rather than pay $250,000 to have a project completed in 6 months. The government for one loses their annual budget if they don't spend it - so spend it they will, come hell or high water. It astounds me at how many project dollars are wasted on things like this. You should always use the right tools for the right job - sometimes this decision is not in your hands. Sometimes it comes down from on high that "thou shalt use X technology" for this project, leaving you thinking "WTF! Who came up with that ridiculous idea?"... the guy paying your paycheque, that's who, now get it done. Programming ideology comes first and foremost, everything else is secondary. In reality, deadlines and business objectives need to be met in order to get your paycheque. Sometimes you make the worst decisions because you just don't have time to do it the right way... just as sometimes that word is on the tip of your tongue but the minute it takes to recall it makes you choose a different and less ideal word. There isn't always time to do it right, sometimes there is only time to do it - however that may be. Hence oft' seen anti-patterns used by so called experienced developers who have to knock out a solution to a problem 10 minutes before the presentation deadline for the software being delivered to your best client tomorrow.
订阅许多RSS订阅，阅读许多博客并参与开源项目是很重要的。
我意识到，真正重要的是我花了更多的时间来写代码。我有阅读和关注许多博客的习惯，虽然它们是丰富的信息来源，但真的不可能吸收所有的东西。平衡阅读是很重要的，要多强调练习。
Reg。开源的话，我怕我不会受欢迎。我尝试过参与开源项目，大部分都是。net。看到许多开源项目甚至没有遵循适当的体系结构，我感到震惊。我看到。net中的一个系统没有使用分层架构，数据库连接代码到处都是，包括后面的代码，我放弃了。
