我正在对初级(也许是高级)软件工程师所犯的常见错误和错误假设进行一些研究。
你坚持时间最长、最终被纠正的假设是什么?
例如，我误解了整数的大小不是标准的，而是取决于语言和目标。说起来有点尴尬，但事实就是这样。
坦率地说;你有什么坚定的信念?你大概坚持了多长时间?它可以是关于一种算法、一种语言、一个编程概念、测试，或者任何关于编程、编程语言或计算机科学的东西。

我以为这将是一场过山车之旅，里面有飞驰的汽车、放荡的女人、私人飞机和大胆的冒险。等着瞧吧，直到我得到那个职业顾问....

没有bug的软件是可能的。
常见的错误假设:“代码质量是次要的”。 更糟糕的假设是:“代码质量一点都不重要。”
代码质量是一个非常宽泛的概念。我在这里已经详细讨论过了。
我一直认为，任何为任何语言编写任何代码的人都会使用编辑程序。
I was working with a client of mine who had me on mostly as support and to write some of the more complex things for him. Well one day he messed up a file, big time. He accidentally saved over three hours worth of his own work, and when I asked him why he didn't save more often he replied with, "because I wasn't done". Naturally, this was not an acceptable answer, and I poked and prodded a little further. I eventually came to find out that he he has never used any editing program, EVER! Not even notepad.exe! He had been using an online CPanel editor for files! It didn't even have a 'Find' function. He couldn't ever save until he was done because he was editing the live file on the site!
不用说，我很惊讶，他至今仍在使用CPanel编辑器……
作为一名老的过程式程序员，当我第一次开始为一个业余项目用Java编程时，我并不真正理解OO。编写了大量的代码，却没有真正理解接口的意义，试图通过将所有东西都强制放到继承层次结构中来最大化代码重用——当一个层次结构无法容纳清理时，希望Java具有多重继承。我的代码成功了，但我现在对早期的东西感到畏缩。
When I started reading about dynamic languages and trying to figure out a good one to learn, reading about Python's significant whitespace turned me off - I was convinced that I would hate that. But when I eventually learned Python, it became something I really like. We generally make the effort in whatever language to have consistent indent levels, but get nothing for it in return (other than the visual readability). In Python, I found that I wasn't doing any more effort than I had before with regard to indent levels, and Python handled what I'd been having to use braces or whatever for in other languages. It makes Python feel cleaner to me now.
我所受的教育将为我在野外工作做好准备。
