Programmers Quotes

An organization that treats its programmers as morons will soon have programmers that are willing and able to act like morons only Picture Quote #1

When designers replaced the command line interface with the graphical user interface, billions of people who are not programmers could make use of computer technology Picture Quote #1

Programmers are not to be measured by their ingenuity and their logic but by the completeness of their case analysis Picture Quote #1

Low code quality keeps haunting our entire industry. That, and sloppy programmers who don’t understand the frameworks they work within. They’re like plumbers high on glue Picture Quote #1

When the words are fuzzy, the programmers reflexively retreat to the most precise method of articulation available: source code. Although there is nothing more precise than code, there is also nothing more permanent or resistant to change. So the situation frequently crops up where nomenclature confusion drives programmers to begin coding prematurely, and that code becomes the de facto design, regardless of its appropriateness or correctness Picture Quote #1

Programmers are in the enviable position of not only getting to do what they want to, but because the end result is so important they get paid to do it. There are other professions like that, but not that many Picture Quote #1

Programmers work in bursts of productivity. Then, they let the brain rest and get back into it. A lot about the office world is not a great fit for me Picture Quote #1

One of the big lessons of a big project is you don’t want people that aren’t really programmers programming, you’ll suffer for it! Picture Quote #1

Real programmers don’t work from 9 to 5. If any real programmers are around at 9am it’s because they were up all night Picture Quote #1

I’ve always felt that people’s ears are wider than programmers are ever wiling to give them credit for. It’s always been very important to me that you not have to turn me off because your kids are in the back seat Picture Quote #1

Getting C programmers to understand that they cause the computer to do less than minimum is intractable. … Ask him why he thinks he should be able to get away with unsafe code, core dumps, viruses, buffer overruns, undetected errors, etc., Just because he wants speed Picture Quote #1

That’s the thing about people who think they hate computers. What they really hate is lousy programmers Picture Quote #1

All great programmers learn the same way. They poke the box. They code something and see what the computer does. They change it and see what the computer does. They repeat the process again and again until they figure out how the box works Picture Quote #1

I will, in fact, claim that the difference between a bad programmer and a good one is whether he considers his code or his data structures more important. Bad programmers worry about the code. Good programmers worry about data structures and their relationships Picture Quote #1

My list of basic tools is a partial answer to the question about what has changed: Over the past few years, large numbers of programmers have come to depend on elaborate tools to interface code with systems facilities Picture Quote #1

An organisation that treats its programmers as morons will soon have programmers that are willing and able to act like morons only Picture Quote #1

If builders built buildings the way programmers wrote programs, then the first woodpecker that came along would destroy civilization Picture Quote #1
