"remember code tells you how comments tell you why" This is actually so good 🔥

Totally agree. I hate comments which just say what the next line is doing. They get so distracting that i have set my editor to color comments almost the same as the background color. So they don't interfere when reading code

I've had a boss yell at me for putting so much commenting in my code, specifically why I'm doing something and what else I've tried. I told him "In 6 months, I'm not gonna remember any of this. Or I might get hit by a bus. Would you rather someone spend a day or a week trying to fix or implement something new on top of what I wrote?" He was all about "I want it now" rather than "I don't care about 6 months from now." Interesting that I do a lot of what you mention and only had 2 computer science classes in college. The rest were in Chemistry, yet I only use my degree in the kitchen when I cook. I'm sure there are other who code much faster but I consider myself blessed that I've NEVER had to code anything in Cobol.

@@michaelvilain8457 I would disagree with you on this. Code itself must be self-explanatory with most high-level programming languages. If you cant understand the code, you dont have enough understanding. The comment might be misleading if you update the code and dont update the comment.

Same comment for unhelpful maintenance log entries. "Fixed a date function" - what was wrong? "Added another parm" - to do what? "Initialized a variable" - which one and why? I just never understood the lack of a short in code comment like "Leap year logic". "Extra Last day of Business Month processing." "Prevent zero divide".

@@skyhappy that's not appropriate way to use comments. When your code is long, do refactor. Comments should only be used to explain "why" you do something.

@@TrungNguyen-mj2id I'm not sure how much code you've written. There are always blocks of code that should be in one function and breaking it up only breaks the flow. 1 simple comment allows someone to skip reading 10-20 lines of code. It's much more read optimized

Your comment on 'robustness' is extremely important. People usually write code on the 'happy path.' However handling errors, bad data, and anomalies is critical. Code in production simply can't fail. It has to handle any situation.

This is a coding principles explanation video. All codedwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encrusted with clear, eye-catching visuals and reassures with simple, easy to apply tips. In the video is a reminder to write comments for "why", not "how". It relates to whole swaths of coders not writing a single line of documentation anywhere. Jokes aside, the quality and density of advice given here is through the roof!

This is a great video with really valuable recommendations. Thus, please take my comments regarding the typos not as a critique of the content. - At 2:07 in the SOLID principles explanation section, I noticed a typo ISP => Interface Segregation Principle. The word Interface is misspelled. - At 2:30 the interface Eatable is misspelled (Estable in the video) - At 3:02 the last sentence of Security Test. It probably should state "penetration" testing (instead of penetrating testing) - At 4:41 the content of the white circle probably should be Refactor instead of Refractor

I love your videos and watch every single one of them, but I have a recommendation. I have been noticing an increase in typos over recent videos, like for example in SOLID the Interface Segregation Principle has a typo and a line below that also is having a mistake in DIP acronym. I love your videos but doing a grammar review once before uploading would be a good indicator for your audience to show the amount of effort you put into your videos, and before major typos become a thing. Lovely video otherwise, lots of great information :D

I strongly agree all of them. Nonetheless, I noticed that a passion to do so and a habit to do so are more important. Often times, they compromise and do not spend 1 more hour on writing better comments but simply call it a day.

Commenting is very hard. I like the traditional style emacs lisp is commented: each style starts with a big comment giving some commentary. Each file also ends with a comment, but this is mostly for historical reasons. functions defined by defun, variables defined by defvar and defcustom as well as macros (note: lisp macros aren’t not preprocessor macros) have an in-build document-string. This means that documentation is defined while writing code, but accessed independently of it. If you want to use a function you first pull out the document string, not the definition. The system forces you to write actually useful comments because you can’t rely on the code to explain your documetation. After this, comments on code are rarely needed. You can still make them of course, but you already wrote few paragraphs describing the whole file and you wrote documentation for each function so you rarely need to clarify the implementation. Many comments feel necessary only because the purpose and intended usage of the whole function or module was never written down. After those are clarified, the code can be awkward and non-straightforward, but still be understood. Good types and names can do this, but one brief documentation paragraph or two makes it very clear.

Saying the *_word_* sequel when you mean the *_acronym_* SQL is confusing and illogical. You don't turn an acronym into a word unless the entire acronym IS a word, or you are simply using the word *_the acronym actually represents._* Throwing that entirely unrelated word in as an unnecessary expansion of the shortened acronym is going in the opposite direction of the entire point of using an acronym in the first place, and it is only confusing. Because nobody can tell which letters comprise the actual shortened term, phrase or title and which letters were just arbitrarily thrown in to make it a word. We pronounce SWAT because all the letters are in the word, but we spell out FBI instead of throwing a few more vowels and consonants in to confuse people. We don't call the FBI "FibBIng cops" Sequel is a now defunct proprietary DBMS that stopped being used or sold in the mid 1980s. SQL is an acronym for structured query language. Is you say "ess, kyew, ell" I might have a chance at figuring out s stands for struxtured, q stands for query and l stands for language. When you say sequel I might decide that sequel is how you pronounce the acronym SEQL or SQUL and now I'm thinking you're talking about symmetrical energy quotient levels of Standardized Electronic Quartz Lighting because I lost context and have nothing to work with besides the phonetic sound "sequel."
