Why is verbosity bad for a programming language? Oded, End-If is a much easier-to-understand construct for the end of a if-statement than brackets when the brackets are nestled inside of another if-statement, inside a loop, inside another loop, inside a function that is inside a class. All of the aforementioned blocks use the same brackets, meaning that trying to figure out which one a particular end-bracket matches less intuitive. |

Assembly in a research paper Yes, I mean that very few people would sit down and hammer out a compiler in assembly if a C compiler exists for the hardware. There are always exceptions, however. |

My boss wants a narrated line-by-line English explanation of our code When a manager gives me an unreasonable request, I first try to argue the point, then give him what he wants. In this case, a single function or module would suffice to show him that he is asking for something he doesn't really want. |

Importance of hobby projects There is a dearth of "Yet another..." projects in the open source space precisely because of "everything I can think of has already been done." |

Why should I write all the Statements within Try-Catch? +1 for logging. Programs in the wild are black boxes. When they fail, a log saying "Here's what happened" goes a very long way to solving the problem. I've had errors in my programs that went unreported, and they were uncovered only after I found them in the log. |
