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。

Java将对象的副本传递给函数,而不是引用。

换句话说,我认为如果你将一个对象传递给一个方法,然后以某种方式改变对象,它不会改变调用范围内的对象。我总是将对象传递给方法,操作它们,然后返回它们!

后藤是有害的。

现在我们决定是继续还是中断。

c++在本质上比所有其他语言都要好。

这是我在大学前几年从一个朋友那里收到的。我带着它很长一段时间(我现在脸红了)。只有在与它一起工作了2年左右之后,我才能看到它们的裂缝是什么。

没有人,也没有什么事是完美的,总有改进的空间。

XML名称空间(或者更糟,格式良好)在某种程度上比没有它们要困难得多。

一个非常常见的错误,甚至在W3C!

这种编程是不可能的。

不是开玩笑的,我一直认为编程是一种不可能学会的东西,我总是远离它。当我接近代码的时候,我永远也无法理解它。

然后有一天,我坐下来阅读了一些基本的初学者教程,并从那里开始学习。现在我是一名程序员,我热爱工作的每一分钟。

另外,我认为编程并不容易,它是一个挑战,我更喜欢学习,没有什么比解决一些编程问题更有趣的了。

我仍然对以下的一些误解感到困扰——尽管我知道这些误解是正确的,但我仍然试图抓住它们不放:

All stakeholders will make decisions about software design objectively. Those that aren't embroiled in writing the code make all sorts of decisions based entirely on emotion that don't always make sense to us developers. Project budgets always make sense - I've seen companies that are quite happy to drop [just for example] $50,000 a month for years rather than pay $250,000 to have a project completed in 6 months. The government for one loses their annual budget if they don't spend it - so spend it they will, come hell or high water. It astounds me at how many project dollars are wasted on things like this. You should always use the right tools for the right job - sometimes this decision is not in your hands. Sometimes it comes down from on high that "thou shalt use X technology" for this project, leaving you thinking "WTF! Who came up with that ridiculous idea?"... the guy paying your paycheque, that's who, now get it done. Programming ideology comes first and foremost, everything else is secondary. In reality, deadlines and business objectives need to be met in order to get your paycheque. Sometimes you make the worst decisions because you just don't have time to do it the right way... just as sometimes that word is on the tip of your tongue but the minute it takes to recall it makes you choose a different and less ideal word. There isn't always time to do it right, sometimes there is only time to do it - however that may be. Hence oft' seen anti-patterns used by so called experienced developers who have to knock out a solution to a problem 10 minutes before the presentation deadline for the software being delivered to your best client tomorrow.
