Are Business Majors considered for Programming Jobs? @Andy really depends on the candidate. I have interviewed some people with cs degrees who couldn't code their way out of a paper bag. |

Use of NotImplementedException @SRKX There is the risk of exceptions getting into production code and causing the whole code block to not work. (hasnt happened to me yet but we all have off days) I personally use them, I was worried I could have overlooked some of the downsides. |

Any standards for naming variables in for loops (instead of i,j,k) @LokiAstari the reason you make variable names longer is to make them clearer. In the case of loop counters the clearest way is to express them the same way as every text book and the vast majority of coders. (ie i j and k) |

Naming conventions for the only envisioned implementation of an interface You should program to an interface AND adhere to YAGNI. There is no reason to add superfluous code to an interface. |

How to reply to incomplete requests from potential customers? This works but runs the risk of pissing off the client when they find their expectations aren't being met. |

What is better done in Ruby and what is better done in Haskell? +1 Good answer. Also worth adding that if your doing it for a reason other than learning then its probably a bad idea. I cant think of one situation other than to learn that you would ever rewrite working code to a language you don't know. |

Science degrees that are complementary to programming @fiftyeight if science interests you more then do that. There are lots (I would even say most) scientific jobs that involve some programming. |

Selling LINQ To Management Faster to execute or faster to write? I have no idea if its faster to run (you would need to test it). I suspect its faster to write but that depends on what exactly you need to do. I was being a little more generic |

How do you code without offending? @codeninja then how can they complain if you don't follow them? They have to agree on a set of conventions before they can expect you to change how your coding. Tell them that |
