| I'm not the original commenter, but I have some: "To me programming is more than an important practical art. It is also a gigantic undertaking in the foundations of knowledge." – Grace Hopper "Beyond basic mathematical aptitude, the difference between good programmers and great programmers is verbal ability." – Marissa Mayer "I’ve always objected to doing anything over again if I had already done it once." – Grace Hopper "The best icons are more like traffic signs than graphic illustrations." – Susan Kare "You haven't mastered a tool until you understand when it should not be used." – Kelsey Hightower "Some problems solve themselves if you are patient enough." – Jaana Dogan "If too many users are wrong, it's probably your fault [..] If a bunch of people trip over the same thing, maybe it's not them. Maybe it's your product, or maybe it's just you." – Rachel Kroll “Falling in love with code means falling in love with problem solving and being a part of a forever ongoing conversation.” - Kathryn Barrett "The best programs are the ones written when the programmer is supposed to be working on something else." - Melinda Varian "Writing software as if we are the only person that ever has to comprehend it is one of the biggest mistakes and false assumptions that can be made." - Karolina Szczur "Sometimes it's better to leave something alone, to pause, and that's very true of programming." - Joyce Wheeler "The purpose of software engineering is to control complexity, not to create it." - Dr. Pamela Zave |
