But it just needs a genius to understand its simplicity. -Dennis Ritchie Before software can be reusable, it first has to be usable. -Ralph Johnson Good judgment comes from experience, and experience comes from bad judgment. -Fred Brooks It's hard enough to find an error in your code when you're looking for it; It's even harder when you've assumed your code is error-free. -Steve McConnell Code Complete The trouble with the world is that the stupid are sure and the intelligent are full of doubt. -Bertrand Russell If debugging is the process of removing bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in. -Edsger Dijkstra You can either have software quality or you can have pointer arithmetic; You cannot have both at the same time. -Bertrand Meyer There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third works. -Alan J. Perlis Measuring programming progress by lines of code is like measuring aircraft building progress by weight. -Bill Gates The first 90% of the code accounts for the first 90% of the development time. The remaining 10% of the code accounts for the other 90% of the development time. -Tom Cargill Programmers are in a race with the Universe to create bigger and better idiot-proof programs. The Universe is trying to create bigger and better idiots. So far the Universe is winning. -Anonymous Theory is when you know something, but it doesn't work. Practice is when something works, but you don't know why it works. Programmers combine Theory and Practice: Nothing works and they don't know why. -Anonymous The Six Phases of a Project: * Enthusiasm * Disillusionment * Panic * Search for the Guilty * Punishment of the Innocent * Praise for non-participants -Anonymous No matter how slick (efficient) the demo is in rehearsal, when you do it in front of a live audience, The probability of a flawless presentation is Inversely proportional to the number of people watching, Raised to the power of the amount of money involved. -Anonymous |
