This tip below reminds me of that phrase years ago by Ed or Ted or
somebody else that said "program to the interface, not the
implementation."
I know I've said it, and I know Ted's said it, and so have many
others. It is excellent advice.
Worst code I saw was years ago when this guy had passed forms to the
business objects and was coding to the implementation
(thisform.pageframe.page99.pageframe1.page999.grd.Crap.header1.fontbold
= ....) lol
Thankfully I quit that nightmare after about 4 months. Every day was a
freakin' chinese fire drill and data crisis situation. My boss--who had
been bought a beautiful new Lexus RX at the time (so that the company
didn't lose her)--ripped me a new one for using ASSERTs in my code,
thinking the customers were going to see the messages. She'd read the
first line of my email and then shout over the cubes asking me all kinds
of questions that were answered beyond that first sentence. She was a
former professional bowler I was told....she should have stuck to that.
