Hi all,
This week I’ll be talking about ‘this‘ pointer. Yeah this little pointer that points to self. Unfortunately, this article won’t really apply to Java or C# users. Nevertheless, you guys may also wanna read this article to appreciate the kind of things we go through writing C++.
So how is it possible that a ‘this’ pointer can lead to a disaster?

Hi all,
Here’s another article regarding software development disasters. However, do note that this is a fictitious story that contains certain fragments of events that are based on my own experience. I’m just using a single story to string them up. So, here it goes:
A team of developers worked on a software for 12 months already. So far, there hasn’t been any issues in terms of functionalities. Everything was proceeding smoothly.
One day, a new user joined the team to help test for exceptional conditions. That’s where the flight to heaven fell from the sky, hit a shit mold and starts to roll into the hot depths of hell.

Hi all,
This week I’m going to talk about my experiences based on my other talents. Technical people can still read this post and perhaps gain some insights for your own benefit.
Basically, I’ve met a group of so-called musicians or guitarist during a gathering in which I was invited. In that group there was one or two that were “certified” as a performer.

Dear all,
I’ve seen someone search for a term as described in the post title above. While I think it’s just a question, it’s also worth to explore what a linked list is all about.
I’ll also talk about some practical usages of linked list as well as theoretical performance of this popular data structure. Lastly, I’ll give some examples as to when a linked list can be used.

Hi all,
This week I’ll be sharing an experience I had recently. Yes, recently despite my “10 years” of C++ experience. There’re still many more things that I do not know about C++ and have tried but failed to fully gasp its concepts properly.
And I think it’s fair to share knowledge gaps since everybody has their flaws. I hope that this article can help some if not help myself should the contents be flawed or inaccurate.
So, let’s have a look… Read the rest of this entry »
