What is most scared of programmers

Software development is generally considered quite a good job, for many reasons. High incomes, good benefits (and possibly very good ones), challenging jobs (usually positive challenges), and under the current employment situation and the needs of programmers, there is very little pressure on occupational competition. Of course, however, this does not mean that programmers do not occasionally wake up in the night for fear of working errors and spit out a cold sweat.

What are the most scared of programmers? According to incomplete statistics on the reply to some posts in the programmer's discussion group, I found some of the most terrified thing programmers. Here are the top five answers to the question "What is most terrified of the programmer," in reverse order of the degree of fear (based on the number of replies per reply and the number of replies per answer).

Fifth: incompetent superiors, incompetent colleagues

No one likes to work with people they think are incompetent, and no one likes to work under the power of incompetent people. Because of this incompetence and inability to work for the programmer will bring tremendous pain and suffering in many ways.

Afraid to hear the footsteps of people in the marketing department of the high-paying low-energy, mumbled with a lot of stress can not grasp the key words, always ask "this is urgent, to be completed as soon as possible." -Bruno Skvorc

Need to rewrite the whole system again ... in a different language ..., use another technique / framework ... To do it once and not in stages (replace one module first and then the other) ... because some senior leaders think that they The best is achieved, the rest are not good, and the need is immediately replaced. -RHSeeger

Afraid to eventually work with one or a few programmers who do not know what they are doing, they also insist that their approach is the best solution. And these people are actually in the position of your superiors / superiors, and you end up having to do it the way they are. -Jaymz

Fourth place: forced to learn or use a particular technique

Just as every programmer has his or her favorite programming language, development tools, and programming skills, there are also some things that life and death are unwilling to touch.

I'm afraid I'm forced to learn Java one day. -gehsekky

Afraid to use COBOL programming. -Taylor Leese

Fear had to put down C # to pick up VB.NET to develop the next project ... Thriller-Dal

Third place: no longer love this kind of work

Everyone, whether or not it is for business, wants to be able to enjoy it at work. Programmers are indistinguishable in this respect from people in other industries - though their job is to be satisfied much more than others in other industries.

Afraid of boring work. -Cory Thomas

Afraid of one day finally understand that I am not suitable for dry programming. Scared to think of it. -Dan

Afraid to work to tie. -Jerry Coffin

Second place: unemployed

Not surprisingly, despite the high demand for programmers in the marketplace, many programmers are still worried about losing their jobs, but the reasons for that are all different.

Afraid to be outsourced ... -Jack

Fear of the increasingly closed development environment - especially Apple's iOS - and the anti-free business model and practices it represents. Being a programmer has been miserable under Microsoft's irresponsible approach, Apple's appalling dismissal of Microsoft's completely-controlled technology has turned Microsoft into a rather affable uncle. -bobince

Something like: Fingers, blind ... can not write code. -Aitjcize

Artificial intelligence, no longer need people programming. -Kevin Ernest Long

First place: do hit things

The worst fear for programmers is actually a small bug --bug. No one wants to make mistakes at work, but depending on the system and application that the programmer is engaged in, various bugs encountered can be annoying but non-trivial and can be life-threatening.

Failed to compile on Friday night, scheduled to go drinking at 8pm. -Anonymous

I am very scared of bugs in the program that cost me a lot of money. -joshtronic

Fear of bug in the program caused physical harm to people or other things. -Jeremy

Every time I submit to develop something or what I am responsible for, I have extreme fear in my heart. No matter how comprehensive testing is done. -Evernoob

Next time you see the programmer panicky look, think about this article. He or she is likely to be nervous about a bug - or scared by the company's dress code.
