Damn socialists! <only half joking>

You are saying,"If you don't always design everything perfectly at the beginning, you are stupid." Nice try. That's completely unsupported and incorrect. All programmers make mistakes, and some are mistakes that result in repetition or unwieldy code, and those things need to be fixed. Sometimes, those "mistakes" are the resulting of doing something twice or three times, intentionally, in order to how to go about building the abstraction.You're supposed to have the design all thought out before writing any actual code. Programmers that make mistakes while writing code eventually lead to the formation of a few WTFs in attempts to "fix" it. It is entirely possible to write perfect working code on the first try. That's because you've already thought out what needs to be done in detail, and all that you have to do is write the code. Syntax errors happen only because the programmer isn't paying enough attention.
I used to visit a site called Guru.com, which had the same issues. For every developer who wants to design and develop something, there are hundreds who will hack it out for cheaper. Ignorance on the part of the stake holders wins out and the hacker gets the gig. That's precisely why many of the jobs involve PHP and not platforms like J2EE or .NET.
Just perusing some code and found several occurances of this. Guess the guy just liked loops (or has some obsessive compulsive disorder)
do{
...
}while(false);

The Suck about Firefox tabs is that when you have a number of tabs
open, and close one, the LAST TAB gets focus, instead of the naturally
PREVIOUSLY-VIEWED one.
He's right. Once everyone realizes this, the whole OOP fad will be over. <jk>
