A review by dorinlazar
Code Complete by Steve McConnell
2.0
This book is what's worse about today's programmers. It's pretentious, complicated, and goes against any agile thought. It's what bloatware usually builds on, and it contains a set of anti-patterns that when followed will turn on themselves.
Surely, not the entire content is bad. There are good things too, and it's ok for programmers to read it; however, they should read it and also learn from its mistakes. This book is aimed at the developer-wanting-to-become-manager, not at the developer wanting to become a better developer. I guess it serves its purpose.
