Why do “data types” in computers exist, if it's really all just bits? Have you ever tried writing binary code? |

Name for this antipattern? Fields as local variables I would say "If you see it in production code, it is a sign that you should reexamine your hiring process" |

Why can't the IT industry deliver large, faultless projects quickly as in other industries? Do you understand programmers who don't make every effort to produce error-free code, because that would take twice as long and management is breathing down their necks to implement these new features yesterday? |

Do you plan your programs out on paper to avoid injurious amounts of typing? It's not how long you type, it's how you type. Get a good keyboard, practice good form, and maintain a relaxed, steady pace. It's when you're wired on caffeine and ripping away under an urgent deadline that you tend to crank your wrists without noticing. |

My boss wants a narrated line-by-line English explanation of our code @Frustrated: So whose voice are you imagining? I can't decide between Sean Connery and Morgan Freeman. |

Completing a project successfully despite hostile management? I can't add much to the answers already given except-- if you're asking how to complete the project despite hostile management, you're asking the wrong question. You will wind up hurling yourself against impossible deadlines, hoping for miracles, and failing. Note that most of the answers below involve leaving the project, or not meeting the requirements your bosses currently demand. Success is not an option. Abandon that idea and you can start to distinguish good tactics from bad. |
