Myths about static analysis. The second myth - expert developers do not make ...PVS-Studio
While communicating with people on forums, I noticed there are a few lasting misconceptions concerning the static analysis methodology. I decided to write a series of brief articles where I want to show you the real state of things.
The document discusses code smells that indicate issues with software design, including rigidity, fragility, immobility, viscosity, needless complexity, and opacity. It provides examples and questions to help identify when code exhibits these smells and suggests approaches to address them, such as improving reusability, reducing duplication, and employing techniques like peer review and documentation.
This document discusses the author's experience with Ruby on Rails over 10 years. It outlines both the benefits and drawbacks of Rails. The good parts include how easy it is to build prototypes, get help online, and find jobs. However, Rails can also make developers overly reliant on its frameworks, opinions, and gems. This dependence limits learning and flexibility. The author advocates learning first principles, stepping outside comfort zones, and understanding underlying technologies like SQL instead of just using Rails as a black box.

The document discusses anti-patterns and worst practices in software development. Some examples covered include static cling pattern, flags over objects, premature optimization, copy-paste-compile, and reinventing the wheel. It also shares lessons learned from experiences, such as being mindful of date times across time zones, avoiding building SQL from untrusted inputs, and not being too cute with test data. Overall, the document aims to help developers learn from the mistakes of others and adopt better practices.
A developer must focus on delivering working software instead of just coding. To be a "rockstar developer", one must have strong knowledge in algorithms, object-oriented programming, design patterns, refactoring, source control, unit testing, and software development processes like Scrum. It is important to continuously learn new technologies, practices, and standards. When choosing a company, consider factors like their use of source control and continuous integration, availability of mentors, and work-life balance. Freelancing can hinder career growth; working with other experienced developers is most beneficial for improvement.

Software Craftsmanship - It's an ImperativeFadi Stephan
The document discusses the history and development of the software craftsmanship movement. It began in the 1990s with ideas around treating software development as a craft similar to other skilled trades. In the 2000s, the concepts of software craftsmanship gained more attention through conferences and manifestos promoting practices like test-driven development that help developers write high-quality code. The software craftsmanship movement aims to improve code quality by treating code as an artisanal craft and valuing skilled practitioners who continuously learn, share knowledge, and produce work they can stand behind.
How did a small, completely self-funded team build a web framework that became more popular than comparable tools with million-dollar budgets? By welcoming the outsiders. Mike will recount how Sails.js grew from an internal tool to one of the most popular frameworks for Node.js, without forgetting its roots.
In this talk, Mike will reflect on the experiences he and his team have had building and managing an open-source Node.js framework, Sails.js. He'll discuss the success they've had attracting interlingual developers to Sails, and share some lessons and difficulties they've encountered migrating a new generation of developers from PHP, Java, .NET and Rails to Node.js.
There will be discussion of examples from both sides of the spectrum addressing community-related and technical issues with a highlight about overcoming the "maintaining interest" challenge.

Caching stores content temporarily in locations closer to users to provide faster retrieval. There are different types of caching including browser, proxy, and gateway caching. Nginx can be used for caching by configuring a proxy cache path and applying the proxy cache location directive. Caching improves speed, capacity, and availability. Static content like images and CSS can be cached, while dynamic content requiring user input should not be cached. HTTP cache headers and testing tools help manage caching effectively.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

29. You have been doing the same thing too long. You don’t practice enough. Change your perspective, try it another way, NEVER STOP LEARNING TO CODE! Suggestion 2:
33. Let other’s make mistakes and learn Never be afraid to try something, even if it might be smelly Always be willing to change your code!

Editor's Notes
Hola, thank you for having me here today! I’m going to be telling you a story, my story. I hope you get something out of it, and if not I hope it amuses you.Before I tell you about myself, I’m going to ask you some questions. I know! Audience participation at a software conference, how awful of me! And just before lunch too! Don’t worry they are not questions about food!Also, everyone has heard the term “code smell before right?”
Just for fun, how many of you are rock climbers?
Like Rails! Especially ones that follow or teach us maintainable patterns and practices of ways to structure code.
What is at the end of the Road? What’s the light at the end of the tunnel?I love descriptive analogies, especially ones that come with a picture of a dog!So which is it? I think I made this pretty obvious, but just in case.
What is this? This is my story.I’m going to be telling you about my experiences with code, the Good, the Bad ,and the Goofy!This explains my questions. I was wondering who out there has a similar background to mine. I went to university for computer science, I worked as a business consultant doing custom development in the Microsoft stack, and now I work as the lead Ruby developer for Blue Box Group.I’ve worked with lots and lots of code of different varieties, and each of the three different places where I have written and had to maintained code I’ve learned something different about what makes for good code and what makes for bad code.Using my hound sniffing analogy, you can say my code sniffing ability grew with each step of my journey.
At university I did a lot of java and C programmingThough we were using java to learn about objects, most of the code I wrote and learned from was procedural in nature and had lots of conditionals:A situation I like to refer to as if-else-death.Working with teams was vile,Tests were unheard ofAnd I rarely every looked at code that was quote ”finished” – ie: code for a completed assignment (in fact I had trouble finding code from that time to make this awful picture of java code for this talk)So with my dog analogy: a dog with a refined sniffer at this point would look at my code and need a gas mask….
So what did I learn about code from University?Of course I learned the basics: how to solve a programming problem (don’t underestimate this!)<Read 1st bullet>unless I interview with Google (linked list, Back-Tracking Search, Bubble Sort,etc…)I did ACM competitions, Top Coder competitions, etc…I certainly got skills from doing that, but they were not skills about how to create maintainable, and/or scalable, applications.I was a CS TA for 3 years, and found teaching to be the best way for me to learn myself.(Not really anymore…)I really loved javadoc when I got out of school, I thought that was the best and only way to document code! How awesome is that, something creates docs right from your comments!HAHA ok enough with the java already! This is a RoRconf!
So what am I going to talk about next? C#... As a consultant, one of my favorite projects was building a financial forecasting system for a very large organization from scratch in C# .Net. It was a service oriented web application that was going to save all of their financial analysts tons and tons of time. We used the Windows Workflow Foundation framework for structuring the app. Anyone familiar with the WWF? Hehe I like to refer to that acronym because it’s reference to the world wrestling federation is appropriate – It’s a big show, and very few people get hurt.We had lots and lots and lots of code.But it wasn’t horrible code, it was very, very structured code. Everything with a similar purpose was grouped together, you knew where to look for a particular action, naming conventions and code patterns for methods were strictly enforced…. Even when they didn’t really make sense…..Our hound in this picture is just sneezing, he’s not terribly sick, but this somewhat nicely patterned behemoth of code never actually went into production… Also, our “test suite” was actually a team of testers with scripts they would run through any time the app changed. That is pretty typical big corporation waste from what I have seen.
So What did I learn about code here?Consistently adhering to patterns makes code written by different team members separately adhere together nicely.I certainly learned about single responsibility and abstractions, but there were patterns beaten into me that never really clicked:Always make your if statements positive, and you must always have an else when there is an if. What? Why?Well now I can say I understand that if you have an if, you are branching your code, and putting the else there makes that other branch explicit, therefore giving someone who comes after more information about what your code does.I can see the argument, but I would say now get rid of the branch and use polymorphism – objects are your friends!!!But again, this wasn’t Ruby, the framework wasn’t Rails, and this was enterprise level business practices – a much more restrictive environment than most of us in the RoR community work in.
So what was next?Ruby! Rails! Legacy Code?Best way to understand OO design principles is to work with code that doesn’t follow any. But it’s a rails app, it has MVC structure and separation of concerns at those layers, right?The model I’ve excerpted here has 2,533 linesThe dog in this picture says it all….So what do you do? This is production code, that the business and the customers depend on. There are bugs. (Did I really need to say that?) but really there are bugs that need fixing and feature requests that need implementation. You gotta deal with it, you gotta do it – That’s how I learned to smell code.
make sure there are tests! – Get the business requirements (AGAIN) from the end user – if it works in production that does not mean “don’t change it”, that means “Good the end users know the business process, and we can easily re-capture what this cluster is trying to do, and re-do it better”.
All of my first code looks like C#, because that’s the last language I knew, and there weren’t any good patterns to follow.I fought with Rails about how it structures data – I’m a db girl, who all of a sudden isn’t supposed to worry about the database anymore….When I found myself writing just as nasty (in terms of maintainability) code I looked for help.
Rails patterns are getting better and better:Coffee Script – makes our js less smelly – and there will be emerging new patterns here for maintaining all the gobs of client side code we are all writing
I talked about patterns to follow – here I’m talking about not following a pattern – when you follow an anti-pattern you will learn something – work with someone else who has a different pattern and learn together with them.The least smelly programmers are pair-programmers
If you have never seen the anit-patterns or code-smells talked about here, they may not click, but then re-read it. This is a reference manual, not a one-time-read.
Same idea here – this book is mentioned in Clean Code – read all the books in clean code’s bibliography – I have not gotten through all of them yet.
Lastly – pick up a hobby – you learn really cool things about what you do everyday when you do something else.From Rock climbing I’ve learned this about OO design patterns:It’s like learning to belay – you learn, you become a good belayer, It becomes muscle memory, but you don’t really get it, until one day it clicks – you’ve caught lots of falls, you’ve both lead climbed and caught a leader fall – you get how the system works and why the pattern / the rules you follow are there. That is when you can evolve and modify the system. You know when to follow the pattern and when to improvise. Do this with your code and help others do it – follow a couple good design patterns, make them muscle memory, and one day it will click, and then you can evolve your own patterns that will push the field forward. – If you’ve followed lots of good patterns, you will know how to make a good new one.
Not everyone has the same experiences you do, sometimes you need to write a bit of C# in ruby to figure out that ruby shouldn’t be written that way.I’ve found that these three things that are about learning and flexibility are more important to creating scentless code than anything else.For # 4 : It’s my pet peeve – I’m allowed one soap-box per talk, and this is it.every point in Chapter 17 (smells and heuristics) that is made about comments is 100% true. I’ve seen all of them, I’ve done a number of those things with comments myself. JUST STOP! Make your code document itself, no one who comes after you, who changes what your code does, will update your comments, but they will update your names and method signatures. And trust your source control – use Git for your comments – it’s a much better place for them. All of us think about the appropriate place for our code to go, think about the appropriate place for your comments.
