Survey - Common Programming bugs and Bad practices

Hi all..

I am trying to do a small survey on common bugs and bad programming
practices. I request you to contribute by giving the following
information:

The bugs you make -- any bug which may be as simple as null
dereference or as complex as Deadlock.

The severity of the bug as you would consider: high, medium,
negligable

an example code snippet for the bug.

I hope you will give the information and you can mail to the ID
vi*********@gma il.com
Once I collect the information, I will post the report to the group.

Thanks in anticipation,
Vipindeep

Several months ago I started a thread with the title "What is/is not considered to be good OO programming" which started a long and interesting discussion. I have condensed the arguments into a single article which can be viewed at http://www.tonymarston.net/php-mysql/good-bad-oop.html I fully expect this to be the start of another flame war, so sharpen your knives and get stuck in!

Comrades, During our current discussion of the fate of functional constructs in python, someone brought up Guido's bull on the matter: http://www.artima.com/weblogs/viewpost.jsp?thread=98196 He says he's going to dispose of map, filter, reduce and lambda. He's going to give us product, any and all, though, which is nice of him.

Can we open up the discussion here about how to improve setuptools which has become the de facto standard for distributing / installing python software. I've been playing around with ruby's gems which seems to be more more mature and usable. From my perspective, the relative immaturity of setuptools and its simultaneous widespread use is a clear python weakness and can make python less easy to absorb than it should be. A few...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
