Code I wrote previously for another project.
As a general rule I don't use other people's code.

C. The code's owner gave it a sock.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

I generally classify "free code" as open source code with one of the more permissive licenses like MIT.
So maybe not no holds barred, but "free for most practical purposes" is more than good enough for me.

(a), since the license may still impose restrictions.
|
|
|
|
|
c) The code may have unknown bugs which can potentially be harmful. Or also some unknown non-obvious dependencies.

It’s weird being the same age as old people. Live every day like it is your last; one day, it will be.

From Ganslle news letter, thought these appropriate.
Quote: Assembly language - The only computer language that allows unlimited artistic expression, assembly was invented by FDR during the Depression as a jobs program.
Quote: C++ - An object oriented programming language which has an on-going committee whose goal is to add so many obfuscating features that no single individual really understands all of its nuances.
As it happens C# seems to be following suit.

We recently posted a job ad, I wanted it to say "Some Assembly Required", well, because it is. HR wouldn't go for it.

From the days of the tech bubble, circa 2000...
A friend worked at Research in Motion, makers of the Blackberry, ticker symbol RIM. When a hiring blitz was planned, HR solicited employees for suggestions on how to advertise job openings. More than one suggestion included a line about wanting a RIM job.
There was also a hiring blitz where I worked, but competition was so fierce that it was hard to find qualified candidates. At an all-hands meeting of close to 500, my boss lamented the quality of the CVs we were receiving. "There are a lot of Joe Blows, but not enough Joe Blow jobs." Howls of laughter, but it was totally innocent. English wasn't his first language, and there's no way he would have knowingly used that line.

Do not remember who told it:

Second rule of code optimization (only for experts), don't do it yet.

Fancy some Häggis Dazs[^] Scottish ice cream?
Or eco friendly Gorilla Glue[^] perhaps?

I can almost see the Gorilla Glue coming true.

Minor spoiler: have heard this word more than 40 years ago in a Botany class. But yes, this is almost a proper noun.
