Notes for the day:
Many wasted years...
As soon as we started programming, we found to our surprise that it wasn't as easy to get programs right as we had thought. Debugging had to be discovered. I can remember the exact instant when I realized that a large part of my life from then on was going to be spent in finding mistakes in my own programs.
-- Maurice Wilkes discovers debugging, 1949
I came across this article on preventing coding errors a couple days ago. At the very top, it starts of with that quote. This cartoon immediately popped into my head; it just took me a little while to get it done.
Note: Raid® (the insecticide) is not to be confused with RAID (the storage technology). RAID really doesn't help much in this situation either.
