Not from programming! From this slow-as-molasses-web-and-database-(cr)app. And perhaps also from randomly changing CP settings. In the last days I was treated to 'open all' and 10 posts per page at about every second click, today fluid layout and 25 posts per page are en vogue.
I still have the print version of this book in the shelf: Graphics Programming Black Book[^]. It has been sitting there for some years and it's time too read all 1350 pages again and then have some fun with graphics.
JavaScriptors, avert your eyes. If you look at this, you will certainly crumble to ashes like a vampire watching the sunrise. Assembly and, if it must be, C at most. No 'best practices' or style discussions. Granted, 8086 - 80486 processors are not very relevant anymore, but that's not really what the book is about. I want to get back a certain way to look through the code right down to the compiled machine code and then do something interesting with it.
Like some Hobbit said:
"Why, I feel all thin, sort of stretched, if you know what I mean: like butter that has been scraped over too much bread. That can't be right. I need a change, or something."

I currently have two machines at work, while one is busy with "slow-as-molasses" things, I can still work on the other. Our C# solution has about 220 projects ...

Run as fast as you can, then read the book and let's program some games. With a little luck the molasses have not noticed yet that they crashed by the time you are back.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at this statement. Someone needs to be arrested for letting that solution go ape sh*t.

I have one with something between 70 and 80, and I have written it all by myself? Wanna come over and try to arrest me?

That is just stupid, and your solution needs to be re-designed. You need to be arrested and sentenced to 50 years of hard labor.

Help! The code nazis are coming for me!
If you have modular components for every layer and also divided up into user and administration services, you quickly get about eight separate assemblies for every module. This way I can, for example, use the code for user registration, administration and login in as many applications as I want without writing a single redundant line. I can even reuse views and presenters, which automatically adapt to the styles and themes of the application.
If you come and redesign that, you will be the cause of a real reason to arrest me. Don't come between a CodeWraith and his code.

Great. Have fun with that when you are breaking big rocks into smaller rocks.

True, we are now splitting it up in more manageable parts. Not easy as everything had dependencies on everything. On our new TeamCity build server build times have now been halved from more than 30 minutes to about 15 minutes

Move common code to services/apis, etc. where possible.
Internal nuget packages for common code work well too, if you can do that at your company.

Thanks, a colleague came up with the idea of using an internal Nuget server too, but we rejected it as one of the requirements is that we can build previous releases without too much hassle from the GIT repository with TeamCity. So everything needs to be in GIT ready for a "custom build" as it is called in TeamCity.

There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

JSON. Do you pronounce it like you would if someone had the name Jason ('jay-sun)? Or more like jay-'sawn ?

And what about how to pronounce GIF? (ducks for cover)

Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.
