I'm a hypochondriac, but It's About Programming

  This person went through their entire career and never have met a bad programmer?

  It’s not just about the code. It’s about delivery. I’ve worked with devs who are incompetent. I’ve worked with devs who write wild code for simple tasks.

  And the whole “it’s just a opinion.” Like no?

  Joel Spolsky (and his ubuquitous book/blog “Joel on Software”)

  This is the first time I’m read this person’s name. From the blog author’s description, it seems like he has lots to say, but not a lot of it is worthwhile.

    Gasp Don’t remind me how old I’m getting. Joel’s blog was really big deal, upto ~15 years ago when he stopped blogging. He and Jeff Atwood created Stack Overflow.

      My age isn’t likely to be the reason why I’ve never heard of him (or maybe forgot about him). Looking into him, he seems like exactly the type of person I wouldn’t pay much attention to.

  “Am I blithely leaving a path of coding carnage that others are forced to clean up?”

  I’ve never seen any evidence that the programmers I hate cleaning up after have ever, even once asked themselves this question.

    Edit 2: But hey, I heard AI is going to take care of all the coding soon. So that will be nice.

    Ah common misconception, the AI is actually going to take care of the coders soon.
