The Garbage Collecter Will Get It

Ok - i am on a dumbass programmer rant today - i cant stand it today - i didnt want this blog to be a big rant about stupid programmers - but today - today it just needs to be.

IF YOU HAVE EVER SAID "We don't need to dispose of that, the Garbage Collector Will Get It" please turn off your computer and go home. You dont deserve your job.

If you think its a good idea to RELY ON EXCEPTIONS AND ERRORS in your code flow as a regular tool please turn off your computer and go home. You dont deserve your job.

Ok so "please turn off your computer and go home. You dont deserve your job. " is a bit harsh - people need to learn somehow and mistakes are one of the best ways to learn - but you know what - the people designing the software and object models really should adhere to the above - because those 2 things alone will cause your software to be slower than you're prepared to handle ... or maybe you just dont care - if that's the case...go home.

just because you CAN do something doesnt mean you SHOULD do it or that it's a GOOD IDEA
