Signs you're a crappy programmer (and don't know it)

I found this article amusing.

Signs you're a crappy programmer (and don't know it) (Damien Katz)

On a slightly similar but different note, I'm working on upgrading a massive codebase from Java 1.3 to Java 1.5. Painful. Very painful.

That sounds horrible. Maybe it'll help ease your pain to know that I spend my days writing vb5 mainly with a toolkit from a vendor that hasn't existed in 5 years on a piece of code contained in one 10000 line file?

(It's changing, but slowly. This week I'll introduce my new concept - a database module!)


Post a new comment:

Three things:

  1. New comments get placed in a "draft" status and will NOT show up on the site until I explicitly approve it. Sometimes that happens within 24 hours.
  2. I reserve the right to reject/remove inappropriate comments.
  3. Sometimes I'll reply to a comment directly in email--so make sure your email address is correct.

If you can't for some reason post a comment, send me an email: willg at bluesock dot org.
