what does coat mean?

I guess that it is meant jokingly: Take your coat and leave this place!
Or: your joke was so dumb that it was actually funny.
Maybe Greg (who gave that coat reply) could confirm that my guess is correct - or that it is wrong

trΓΈnderen is right. When someone makes a joke that makes people groan, telling them to get their coat (or that you'll get it for them) is a way of saying that they should leave.

well it is definitely a groaner, hence Bad Joke of the Day.

Clippy was rusting away in the corner?

Shouldn't that be 'rusted away'?

Looking at the Spam and Abuse forum, you'd think word would get out by now that you can't get a spam article posted on Code Project!
But they keep trying, endlessly.

I always thought that if they put as much time in actually doing and leaning the lesson as the time spent trying to cheat they'd be a lot better off.

They probably have tables full of people on computers, going through lists of websites, trying to post the same article to every website. They might have scripts for each website that they follow to know how to post. And the people are probably professionals. I'm sure that some unethical business is paying them to do this.

From the CP newsletter
Somewhere along the way we forgot about software craftsmanship[^]
Summary of complaining about now how programming is somehow different and worse than at some undefined point in the past.
"Unfortunately, "impact" is almost always measured by what features you shipped rather than considering the impact your code had on the long-term maintainability of the codebase."
I used to read studies all the time targeting process control. So one or more studies that I saw before the year 2000.
First a study that demonstrated that 'code reuse' which everyone thought was the thing to do wasn't actually used (you know in actual code) unless there was real measured processes put into place. So when developers got paid directly for code reuse or when their annual reviews (tied to raises) measured that then developers used it. Then it was used.
Otherwise it wasn't.
Second a study (or several) showed that formal processes were not followed unless a senior level executive, often 'C' level, required that it be measured and enforced. Again tied to annual reviews.
"you're likely to be in an Agileβ’ environment in which you get overloaded with tasks."
That of course must be a joke.
Start date of Agile was 2001.
The book from Edward Yourdon called "Death March" with a copyright date of 1997 addressed that specific issue. An entire book on it.
"Regardless, we're hardly ever shipping out a physical CD where we have to be damn well sure the software works. We can afford to "move fast and break things.""
Not sure what that is actually complaining about.
There are a lot of systems right now where that is not acceptable.
Same is true in the past as well.
There are processes that one can implement to mitigate problems. Very difficult processes to set up and maintain. And suitable only to enterprises with very large infrastructure laydowns.
(I agree with the O'Reilly book "Building Microservices" that states that a start up with a new paradigm is going to create nothing but maintenance problems down the road if they start up by immediately attempting microservices.)
"I feel like it's been forever since I had a conversation about craftsmanship on the job."
Sounds like a good thing.
The discussions like that I have seen usually (perhaps always) reflected nothing but a subjective opinion often based on nothing more than one single document (book or online post) that the person read.
Such discussions sometimes include hand waving references to other types of engineering disciplines especially civil engineering. But often (again perhaps always) no idea why certain parts in that works well for that discipline and definitely without understanding that those other disciplines have significant and notable failures as well.
There is no better demonstration of this than claims that code layout itself (tabs, braces, variable naming) have any impact at all on maintenance costs. Not to mention that the person arguing this doesn't even state that the cost is the only relevant part of the discussion.
