It might not be from him at all, but still a nice T-Shirt worthy quote:

Many more “Essential Programming Guides” that are not in the O RLY Parody Book Generator for Slack are at [WayBack] O RLY Books.

Fred Hebert on Twitter : “honest programming books… “
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/10/03
[WayBack] Fred Hebert on Twitter : “honest programming books… “:
- The CVE Programming Language; ANSI C; Second Edition
- The Rust Programming Language; The C++ that Feels Like Haskell (this book cannot be borrowed)
- Librertarian Programming; The Ideology Behind Heartbleed, by a Racist Misogynist Taken Seriously; Revised and Expanded; I don’t think the cops in that video hated anybody. They were just doing their job. And their job included strangling a man to death for having sold untaxed cigarettes.
- The Go Fuck Yourself Language
- Continuous Integration; Pushing Retry Until Flaky Test Pass and the Build Succeeds
More images at [WayBack] Thread by @mononcqc: “honest programming books more honest books (including my own) […]”.

God is real unless declared integer,
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/09/07
Kristian Köhntopp commended:
GOD IS REAL UNLESS DECLARED INTEGER..
In some versions of Fortran, the default type of variables starting with I, J, K or L is integer, while other varianles are by default typed as real. The Fortran statement DECLARE can be used to explicitly declare a variables as being of a specific type.
The variable GOD stats with G and hence is implicitly real, unless you add an appropriate declare statement.
He reminded my of my FORTRAN 66 days at university when studying “computer usage for chemists”:
I remember a “computer usage for chemists” course during my studies where (end of the 1980s!) were supposed to program in FORTRAN 66.
Luckily the VAX/VMS machine supported a much more recent FORTRAN version and had support for 132 columns as well, which allowed me to indent properly (like I was used from my Pascal background).This tremendously helped me solve basically this problem:
- import tables with
- atom code, radius and valence (bonding count)
- atom1 code, atom2 code, minimum distance, maximum distance
- atom code, X/Y/Z coordinate
- determine which bonds can occur
- walk the bonds and determine the atomic structure, including cycle count
Especially the last one was easiest to solve with recursion, which FORTRAN does not support. So I wrote my own stack structure and solved the problem.
The student coach was mad when she found out I had printed the full documentation on continuous form paper which took the printer about half an hour for printing the ~100 pages.
Next morning, I had read it front-to-back and colour-indexed all the sections so it was far easier to find what the compiler could do for me. She could not believe I had done that.
All my co students were on a (non shielded!) 300 meter multiplexed serial connection with VT-120 emulators from PC’s with all sorts of connection problems.
I discovered a small room right above the VAX/VMS machine having a couple of terminals with direct connections that were hardly used. A few of them were VT-240 that had a session switch allowing for maximum 3 interactive sessions running at far higher priority than the compiler/linker batch queues provided.
This allowed me to perform quick release cycles of my project: 1 session for editing and inspecting logs, 1 session for compiling my last version, 1 session for linking the previously compiled version.
I was about the only student that delivered the project on time (:
