Do you question your own code shortly after you wrote it?

Name: Anonymous 2014-05-05 21:36

Do you question your code shortly after you wrote it? I find myself questioning everything I have written weeks, even days after I have written it! I often contemplate rewriting everything. I wonder if this is normal behaviour or if I am just too worried about my code being shit instead of continuing on with projects before I just get worried and start everything over?

There's always another way to write it. As long as it works well enough for what you are trying to do, you may as well leave it as it is.

No, not really. Maybe if you're an idiot that doesn't understand what's going on then yeah maybe. But if you're me then you get it flawless and perfect first try.

You need to look at things outside your own point of view. No solution is ever perfect. Every approach has it's faults. So it's impossible to write something flawless and perfect. A chair that is strong enough to support an elephant is not light enough for me to lift.

Essentially what I'm saying is if you think your work is flawless, you aren't letting yourself see its faults.

Stop being negative you illogical imbecile.

You need to look at things outside your own point of view.
Ditto.

No solution is ever perfect
Baseless assertion And what about solutions? I am talking about my programming of flawless and perfect programs. They aren't ``solutions'' to anything. They are computer programs. Flawless and perfect ones at that.

Every approach has it's faults
Baseless assertion.

So it's impossible to write something flawless and perfect.
Baseless and illogical conclusion.

A chair that is strong enough to support an elephant is not light enough for me to lift.
Nonsensical and badly reasoned metaphor.

Essentially what I'm saying is if you think your work is flawless, you aren't letting yourself see its faults.
Baseless presumption.

My flawless and perfect programs shall continue to be flawless and perfect while you wallow in your idiocy and negativity.

You just aren't smart enough to comprehend your own stupidity. You haven't extended yourself to your limit so you are satisfied with your current performance and base of knowledge. If you want to take pride in that you can, but I choose not to.

Who said I was ``satisfied with your current performance and base of knowledge''? My performance and knowledge is always improving. I have yet to reach a limit and am self-aware. I didn't say that all my programs are flawless and perfect but sooner or later they shall reach it and some are flawless and perfect from the start. I take pride in possessing a HIGH INTELLECT. I comprehend YOU fully and the irony is amusing.

I don't mean to be pedantic, but the very fact that they are improving is evidence that they aren't perfect, as otherwise they'd have no reason to change.

Name: >>23 2014-05-05 22:51

and if they aren't changing, it doesn't mean that it's perfect, but that it is acceptable enough to not motivate further work.

I can evaluate the difference between perfect and acceptable enough. Some may be flawless and perfect while the others are acceptable enough (acceptable enough for functional use but I shall make improvements and make them flawless and perfect).

Your programs are not perfect. They are acceptable by some standard. I don't consider a perfect program to be a program that is secure and runs efficiently. It needs to be perfect in every way. Ways I have imagined, and in ways no one has yet imagined. 10 years down the road people will look at it and say yes, there is objectively no better way to implement this on the given target machine(s). And this holds during all possible interpretations of the word better, from now until the end of civilization.

You're wrong already. The perfect program must obviously be completely hardware-independent and be able to run on any machine.

Why? It's way more profitable.

$1 per download compared to pathetic Android's $0.01, and Windows Phone's unimpressive $0.15.

Though, I don't know why I should care. Nothing I've published has ever broken a hundred downloads (excluding Android's Chinese pirates).
