总有一天，我会有一个现实的想法，那就是构建一些重要的代码/系统/什么的需要多长时间。

作为一名老的过程式程序员，当我第一次开始为一个业余项目用Java编程时，我并不真正理解OO。编写了大量的代码，却没有真正理解接口的意义，试图通过将所有东西都强制放到继承层次结构中来最大化代码重用——当一个层次结构无法容纳清理时，希望Java具有多重继承。我的代码成功了，但我现在对早期的东西感到畏缩。

When I started reading about dynamic languages and trying to figure out a good one to learn, reading about Python's significant whitespace turned me off - I was convinced that I would hate that. But when I eventually learned Python, it became something I really like. We generally make the effort in whatever language to have consistent indent levels, but get nothing for it in return (other than the visual readability). In Python, I found that I wasn't doing any more effort than I had before with regard to indent levels, and Python handled what I'd been having to use braces or whatever for in other languages. It makes Python feel cleaner to me now.

你可以在它的构造函数中memset(this, 0, sizeof(TheObject))一个c++对象而没有负面的结果

我最大的先入之见是，我将被允许以我想要的方式编程。当然，后来我离开了大学，进入了一家拥有荒谬框架、规则和程序的公司，这不仅意味着我不能以自己想要的方式编程，而且意味着我编程得很糟糕。

我是一名初出茅庐的年轻开发者，希望从事专业的开发工作，因为这是我所热爱的，以下是我曾经持有的一些观点，这些观点都是我在短暂的经验中学到的，但都是错误的

当你根本不把用户界面和逻辑分开时，你最终会遇到的可怕的混乱是可以接受的，这也是每个人写软件的方式

不存在太多复杂或抽象的东西

一类责任——我从未真正有过这个概念，它对我来说是非常正式的

测试是我在卧室里编写代码时不需要做的事情

我不需要源代码控制，因为它对我所做的项目来说是多余的

开发人员什么都做，我们应该知道如何设计图标和做出漂亮的布局

Dispose并不总是需要结束符

任何类型的错误发生时都应该抛出异常

异常是针对错误情况的，很多时候只返回一个指示失败的值就可以了。我最近才明白这一点，我一直在说这一点，并且在很长一段时间内仍然抛出异常

我可以编写一个完全没有错误的应用程序

In the early days, most personal computers had a cassette tape interface for loading and storing programs. I did not have a computer at this time but read everything I could get my hands on (mostly magazines) that had anything to do with computers (this was the late 70's - no internet for me). For some reason I was under the impression that programs were executed directly from the cassette tape and that the only reason computers had any RAM was to store variables while the program ran. I figured that when the code had to execute a jump instruction, it would somehow rewind or advance the tape to the correct position and continue from there.
