Once upon a time, in a rabbit outsourcing warren of Bunnylore, there was a young software developer bunny. And as a developer, she has had one very unusual treat: she was obsessed with eliminating all the bugs she can get his forelegs on. So, it is not surprising that her friends called her a “No Bugs” Bunny (or simply “NoBugs”).

Later on, she grew up, so she decided that “Bunny” in her name has became inappropriate (not to mention potential arguments with Warner Brothers), so she has asked all her friends to call her “No Bugs” Bunny. She has made a career as a team lead and software architect, and they lived happily ever after.

Quote:

with all due disrespect to mutable static/global data, I have to say that the problem of semantic memory leaks is NOT restricted to statics

Another Quote:

semantics of good code is about the same regardless of Java/C++ choice

C++: "model of the hardware" vs "model of the compiler"

October 3, 2018 by “No Bugs” Bunny

Quote:

we MUST NOT care about compiler internals beyond our task definition (which is based on (a) humans, and (b) hardware, that’s it).

Another Quote:

My problem with introducing a ‘model of the compiler’ into the picture, is that it can be used to justify pretty much anything without any relation to real-world requirements.

Too Much Unit Testing Is Detrimental for Code Quality?

August 3, 2018 by “No Bugs” Bunny

How Code Quality Depends on Amount of Unit Testing

Quote:

Code quality tends to be Quite Bad(tm) when there is no unit testing at all, reaching maximum when there are 0 to 10% of the unit testing methods, and degrading afterwards

Another Quote:

It is quite easy to get past the optimum amount of unit testing for your project. And whenever your unit testing starts to affect your code in a negative way – you should stop

CAS (Re)Actor for Non-Blocking Multithreaded Primitives

Quote:

in 2017, I started to feel that the Dark Ages of mutex-based thread sync were over

Another Quote:

Another issue which almost universally rears its ugly head when speaking about not-so-trivial uses of CAS is the so-called ABA problem.
