Software Engineering's Greatest Hits [video]
Well, this has a lot of practical knowledge on offer, and I intend to watch it a few more times for it all to sink in.<p>I&#x27;ve always believed that anyone can learn anything, if they and their teacher both believe it, and put in the effort. I&#x27;m glad to see that bias confirmed.<p>I was really surprised that nobody seems to actually handle errors. This does reflect my experience, in what I thought (until now) was an exception. In about 1985 I was taking a vendor taught course in PL&#x2F;N at the Norand company (who made hand-held computers used for inventory management). We got to the section of the course about error handling. They described the syntax for checking errors, and how to format things, etc. I asked what happened when you got an error, and both instructors had never been asked that question, and both had ZERO clue about it.<p>For all the arguments here about in and out of band error handling, this was shocking, and definitely did not confirm any bias.
