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。

聪明人总是比我聪明。

当我犯错误的时候,我真的可以痛打自己,经常因为自嘲而被责备。我曾经敬畏地看着许多开发人员,并经常假设,既然他们在X方面比我知道得多,他们就比我知道得多。

随着我不断积累经验,认识更多的人,我开始意识到,虽然他们在某一特定领域比我知道得多,但他们并不一定比我/你聪明。

这个故事告诉我们:永远不要低估你的能力。

其他人都在使用最新最好的技术,而我的团队是唯一一个使用劣质过时工具的人。(除了神秘的cobol恐龙)

I thought I'd be coding for 8 hours straight. Realistically, I get 4 hours a day of coding, 1 hour for lunch, 1 for coffee breaks, and 2 for screwing around / chit chatting/ stack over and under flowing. Prior to working, I thought that all clients would be idiots and don't know two craps about computers. Boy was I wrong on that one. Sometimes, we get projects by people who can do it better than we can, they just don't have the time to do it. I thought cubicles were bad, Right now I love them :D I actually moved from a door-ed office to a cubicle. I like the openness. All programmers are not athletic. I thought that I was the only one that goes to the gym. Where I work, at least 10 of us go to the gym every day at 5 am. I thought there would be no women programmers. A couple of our leads are ladies.

我们作为软件工程师能够理解用户真正想要的是什么。

人们实际上关心所使用的技术(开源/闭源)。
