Lazy Programmers are Good Programmers

by me on Jul.20, 2008, under Technology

Most of my friends are not computer folk, so this should be interesting anyway.

In my opinion the best programmers are the laziest programmers. We’ll show some examples. A lazy programmer will find a way to program something once and reuse those methods throughout their entire program.

So write once, use many. That’s a pretty efficient solution for a lazy programmer. Now just to remember that you’ve created that method when you write your next application.

Oh here is another one, but somewhat controversial. If someone has already written it and I have their source, by golly it’s mine now bitches! Don’t recreate the wheel.

Now for real efficiency, if it can be done in 2 lines of code as opposed to 30, a lazy programmer will find a way to do it!
