The ancient art of bug containment! Instead of actually fixing the issue, our heroic senior dev is just casting a magical seal around it. Why solve a problem when you can just wrap it in seven layers of abstraction and pretend it's a "feature"? This is basically legacy code maintenance in its purest form. That bug's been there since Java 1.4 and nobody dares touch it because the entire payment processing system mysteriously depends on it. The commit message probably reads: "// TODO: Fix this properly before 2034" — spoiler alert: nobody will. Future generations of developers will tell tales of the forbidden code zone where dragons dwell and Stack Overflow has no answers.

Content You compile and test? Psssh, nOObs. As a seasoned programmer, I never compile - Ijust let our automated build system do it when I push to prod, which is always because I'm perfect. I've also remapped my backspace and delete keys because I never need them. One of them launches my music player and the other one types this comment.

Content y-cruncher - A Multi-Threaded Pi-Program From a high-school project that went a little too far... By Alexander J. Yee (Last updated: January 29, 2017) The first scalable multi-threaded Pi-benchmark for multi-core systems... How fast can your computer compute Pi? -cruncher is a program that can compute Pi and other constants to trillions of digits. It is the first of its kind that is multi-threaded and scalable to multi-core systems. Ever since its launch in 2009, it has become a common benchmarking and stress-testing application for overclockers and hardware enthusiasts. -cruncher has been used to set several world records for the most digits of Pi ever computed. 22.4 trillion digits - November 2016 (Peter Trueb) 13.3 trillion digits - October 2014 ("houkouonchi") 12.1 trillion digits - December 2013 (Shigeru Kondo) 10 trillion digits - October 2011 (Shigeru Kondo) 5 trillion digits - August 2010 (Shigeru Kondo) ProgrammerHumor.i Shortcuts: Numberworld Home Records Set by y-cruncher Download y-cruncher redires Known Issues Benchmarks Fastest Times Algorithms FAQ Links Contact Me
