Tom C inherited some Go from another developer, and writes, “I’m pretty sick of finding this sort of stuff in this code.”
It’s good to log every error- it’ll help in the long run when you’re trying to trace through the problem which happens in production but the program works fine on your machine. This code knows that accessing the logger object is code that can throw an error, so if it gets an error fetching the logger object it… logs the error. With the logger object that returned some kind of error. //thedailywtf.com/images/highlight/highlight.pack.js

via Tumblr Representative Line: Log Every Error Web development has gone in a bizarre circle since the early 2000s. Whet ASP.NET launched, its “big sell” was Web Forms, which allowed developers to use a desktop model for handling interactive applications. The basic logic you used for building a desktop forms application would work for a web app, because at the time, everyone was a desktop developer. Fast forward to today, where we bundle our applications up in web browsers and use web metaphors to build desktop applications, because everyone’s a web developer. This may be proof that developers can only ever learn a single way of doing things, and that two options is one too many. Which brings us to some code Petr Tomanek recently inherited. The original developer, Josiah, started their career around the early 2000s. They were big advocates of the data row approach to data access. In code, they’d forget that they’d already run a query, and run it three more times just to be sure to get the data. Their approach to UI wasn’t even quite up to Web Forms standards, and was more, “mash together my personal library of snippets and Stack Overflow copy/paste”. The current incarnation of the application used the more modern ASP.NET MVC, but you wouldn’t know it to look at most of the code. But Josiah would at least try to use the new features. For example, when they wanted the URL of a screen in the MVC application, they knew that the
The At least Josiah was consistent, and used this hammer everywhere they needed a URL.

via Tumblr CodeSOD: A Linking Approach Not so long ago in 2015, Carl C. was asked to give a talk to an amateur radio club. The venue was a local church that rented out their meeting hall to various community groups, businesses, and even the odd academic session. The space boasted a multimedia setup with several video screens, making it a great place at which to present. Carl prepared his talk, and a PowerPoint slide deck to go with. On the day of the presentation, he arrived at the meeting hall with plenty of time to spare. Alone in silence, he headed toward the front of the room and surveyed the technical setup. Thankfully, it was straightforward: there was a table set up in front of the projector screen, with a VGA connector resting directly on it. Carl unpacked his laptop, retrieved the HDMI-to-VGA adapter he’d brought along, and began plugging everything together. “NOOO!” Carl jumped, then glanced up wide-eyed like a deer in headlights. It wasn’t a truck bearing down on him, but rather a flustered gentleman hugging a laptop to his chest. “I’m the IT guru here,” he introduced himself breathlessly, hurrying around the table to all but elbow Carl aside. “We don’t allow outside computers to be connected to our system. That’s how viruses spread! You’ll have to run your presentation from our computer.” He connected his own laptop to the AV system in lieu of Carl’s. “Uh …” Carl blurted. “Yes?” The guru fixed him with a withering stare. I’m not joining your network, Carl thought. There’s no such thing as VGA viruses! But the stare was so intense that the objections died before they left his throat. “How, uh … how do I get my presentation on there?” he asked instead, gesturing to the guru’s laptop. “Can you copy it to a USB stick?” the guru asked. “That’s the best way.” Right. No one’s ever gotten a virus from a random USB stick. Biting his lip to short-circuit a laugh, Carl dug through the side pockets on his laptop bag. “I think I’ve got one with me.”

via Tumblr Suffer Not The Virus To Live Ben M recently inherited some code from some Highly Paid Consultants. These consultants needed to be able to set some flags to control the behavior of the application, and for whatever reason, these flags needed to be strings. It probably wasn’t a good reason, but there was some reason. The consultants wrote the module which set the flags, and guaranteed that the flags were only ever To parse those flags back into boolean values, they did it the true Highly Paid Consultant way: they used a generic “string to boolean” solution they copied from Stack Overflow instead of private bool ConvertBoolean(string value, bool defaultValue = false) { bool returnValue = defaultValue; if (value == null) { return returnValue; } if ("y".Equals(value, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) || "yes".Equals(value, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) || "true".Equals(value, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) || "1".Equals(value, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) || "on".Equals(value, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)) { returnValue = true; } else if ("n".Equals(value, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) || "no".Equals(value, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) || "false".Equals(value, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) || "0".Equals(value, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) || "off".Equals(value, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)) { returnValue = false; } return returnValue; }

via Tumblr Error’d: On Second Thought, I’ll Just Go Back to Bed There are many moments where our multi-threaded code needs to gurantee only one code path is executing at a time. That’s why we have locks, semaphores, mutexes, and so on. But those are all pretty complicated. Vincent H recently was reviewing someone’s code, and they found a far more elegant solution, which simply uses booleans. For example, you could whip up a wait loop with a simple block like this:

Bart knew how to do everything from desktop support to software development to database administration to IT security. Not only was he proficient in all of them, he also knew them better than those with many years of experience. Bart had been with Virtucon since the early days, racking up nearly 20 years of tenure. During this time, he ‘mastered’ everything and asserted himself to the point that no changes could happen without his approval. His changes were auto-approved because of course any idea he had was a good one. This led to myriad problems for fellow IT people like Alvin, who were hired after Bart. “Be wary of Bart,” Alvin was warned by his coworker Bob, who was Bart’s junior by a couple years. “He has a long history of buffoonery, yet has somehow ascended to the #3 position in IT.” Alvin sipped on a generous mug of coffee while Bob regaled with the Ballad of Bart. From the time he was just a helpdesk intern that put his shoulder through a core switch after tripping while carrying boxes, Bart was wrecking things. When Bart worked his way up to server support, he 'fixed’ an Exchange issue by restoring a backup into production without warning because “It worked when the backup was taken.” When he was assigned a web server problem, he spent a few days troubleshooting it without asking for any help. When he finally gave in, he told Bob that he couldn’t figure out a frustrating IIS HTTPS binding issue. Bob explained to him that something else had to be the problem because the server was running Apache 2.4 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. When Bart added software development to his repertoire, he clearly didn’t understand how code changes worked. Or code repositories for that matter. He always wanted to be the one to fix problems, so he would stick his nose in code that it didn’t belong. Bart once tried to make fee schedule changes to accounting software by opening its PowerBuilder libraries in Notepad++. He proceeded to print out the .PBL and use a pencil to scribble out every value from the old schedule and wrote in the new ones. He then scanned his penciled changes in as a PDF and emailed it to Bob to implement. Frustrated, Bob spent an entire day showing Bart how their GitHub repositories worked. He seemed to understand, so Bob went on his way. While Bob hoped Bart wouldn’t actually produce any more code, perhaps it would save their printer some toner if he did. The next day, all the developers were complaining to Bob that they couldn’t access GitHub. It turns out Bart saw GitHub as a threatening malicious code breeding ground so he had a network admin block it on the firewall. He then sent an email to development staff explaining this and that they were supposed to now use 'BartHub’, a file share he set up on his own computer. Bob and the developers managed to distract Bart by pointing out how the DBA team needed help. The first thing he did was try to create an SSRS report using a series of text boxes in a grid to make a matrix. The DBA’s had a good laugh at that until Bart started to commit worse atrocities. One day an entire metrics database suddenly became a bunch of null values, which is not very helpful for metrics. Bart threw a fit because the data he was working on was gone. He demanded whomever messed up the data be hunted down. He suggested that missing historical data could be found by performing 'key triggers’, whatever those were. He emphasized his point by making hand motions like he was scrambling a Rubik’s cube. They ignored him and a lead DBA ran a profiler trace to find that the unconstrained null updates came from… Bart’s workstation. Alvin had long since imbibed his coffee when Bob finished his story. Bob turned back to his workstation to check his email, “Oh, would you look at that. I guess we have some changes up top!” The email stated that the current VP of IT was announcing his retirement after 30 years at Virtucon. The CTO would be taking on that new role at the end of the month. The transition plan began and the CTO was groomed to take over. That plan was shredded a week before it was to take place because the CTO suddenly found himself unemployed. The finance department was investigating his use of the company credit card and found thousands of dollars in personal charges, so he was unceremoniously terminated. Turmoil gripped the office as an entire department waited to find out who their new leader would be. Everyone except Bart put in a good word for Bob to become the next VP of IT. At minimum, they should hire someone from the outside. Pretty much anyone but Bart was the popular suggestion. Bart predictably put in a good word for himself and talked a big game about all of his expertise. He added security expert to his resume by talking about disabling his home WIFI’s SSID broadcast and changing the default password. Then there was the previously-unmentioned experience as an IT Project Manager where he apparently led several teams at Schmoeing. That Friday, that dreaded email with the subject New VP of IT came out. Being the most tenured person remaining while having “great leadership qualities,” Bart got the promotion and Bob didn’t. Many job search sites probably thought they were getting a DDoS attack over the weekend while everyone in Virtucon IT looked to abandon ship. Bart’s reign of terror lasted 18 months before Virtucon realized they made a grave mistake. Bob, Alvin, and many others weren’t around to see the way it all ended.
