Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming βWow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

I just caught myself saying I wanted to head back to the keyboard to knock out a issue with wildcard selectors while sanitising HTML generated from Markdown and had to stop and have a good hard talking to myself. This - THIS - is what you spend your life doing??
I love it, I really do, but the words really don't convey the excitement we all feel, right?

Surely you mean Regular Expressions.

Don't tell Matthew. He'll lose it on me

My understanding of Regular Expressions is that if you have a problem you're trying to solve with them, you end up with two problems.
|
|

RegEx (well, non-trivial RegEx anyway) just doesn't fit my head - I'm just not wired that way . .
That said, I had a great colleague around 30 years ago who's favorite response (when I explained a problem taking more than 5 minutes to do so) was "Yeah - that's two lines of PERL" . .
Not even sure if I remembered the name of the language right, but if he reads this, he'll know, I'm sure . .
A few are great.
I am small.

Is it any wonder that The Lounge has topics like CCC, Wordle-stuff etc? Like
I tested positive for Covid yesterday, and I'm WFH, but rather than entirely calling in sick I'm revisiting some lower-priority pet projects that interest me.
Like jhaga said "Coding is an addiction..." and Ron Anders "It is fun".
To me, programming is often like getting paid to read books, learn stuff, do crossword puzzles, wordle, riddles, and logic puzzles.

Thatβs the thing I think Iβve learned the most over my 30 years of IT Career:
Coding is a lot of things and very little of it is actually coding.
Probably 10% of your time (if that).
I remember writing little C/C++ console programs that processed a text file or some little thing, and absolutely bristling with energy and excitement as I dreamed of programming for a career.
And go back to the K&R C book and look at those beautiful little programs. So exciting and fun.
But then it all gets buried under
* Meetings
* βArchitectureβ
* Patterns
* Agile Scrum and grooming backlogs
* Email explanations
* Dependency Injection Containers (only if you used them do you know the hidden code and magic and ugly debugging)
* Documentation
* OOP Design
* bug hunting & fixing
All the fun gets buried under the business somewhere
I love some good old fashioned coding, start typing the thing up and letβs see what we can get working
But it donβt pay

You know you really need an intervention when you're coding while you hate it.
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

No. I loves it

Someone has said:
10% coding
90% error handling.
|
|
|
|
|
Coding is an addiction so I am trying to limit myself to one function or one feature per day.
I consider a day lost on which I have not coded at least once...

Man is defined by his projects.
"Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I
