In languages that don't allow underscores in integer constants, is it a good practice to create a constant for 1 billion? Awkward to read is much more of an issue than awkward to type. |

Building automated unit tests for tools which don't have an xUnit implementation I'm curious what language(s) the code you are talking about is written in, can you share? |

Do I need to use an interface when only one class will ever implement it? Creating an interface solely because of a limitation of your mocking framework seems like an awful reason to me. Using, for example, EasyMock mocking a class is as easy as an interface anyway. |

Is there any reason to use “plain old data” classes? Can't believe this answer has no votes (well, you have one now). This might be a simple example, but when OO is abused enough you get service classes that turn into nightmares containing tons of functionality that should have been encapsulated in classes. |

Inspiring problems to show off the importance of regular expressions? For more advanced stuff you can also (in addition to knowing regexs) use more specific tools such as logstash. |

Why are public and private accessors considered good practice? Then you need a Coordinate class ;) |

Programming in academic environment vs industry environment @FrustratedWithFormsDesigner I think there usuall is as teams tend to be larger, and there also tends to be a larger hierarchy of people that need to be briefed at some level. Small companies can't afford bureaucracy :) |

Programming in academic environment vs industry environment @FrustratedWithFormsDesigner I had more meetings in academia actually. Though I do work in a fairly lean small company that is low on formal process. |
