self taught programmer vs qualified programmer.

Yeah, but it’s hard to follow the O’Reilly book: “Intelligent Design Patterns”, without a degree. You may end up with more platypuses.

The only "design pattern" that matters is writing idiomatic and safe code!

You may have missed the fake book name I referring to. I also think that overriding classes for power trips is also an important design pattern.

class WhosYoDaddy : public QWidget { … }

My bad. I was busy talking chatting with the rest of the rust community about how awesome we are.

/s ...ok I'll stop, I'm starting to feel dirty

That was a doozy I must say

I'm in the camp where I have to exploit what people code.

All I can say is lots of coders are terrible at coding and leave giant loopholes in systems in large corporations. For me there is often (30% +) of the time in a pentest the the coders are to blame for a vulnerability. Sometimes guys with 20 years experience or BSCs in programming let the team down.

Just because the code works doesn't mean it's secure, if anything do research on how to code securely. I have a CTI coding thing, a Bcom informatics and neither course taught me how to code securely (granted I don't do much coding these days but do read a lot of code).

Read up on OWASP top ten and learn to guard against. There is something crazy like 94% of apps are vulnerable to one form of injection or another.

That oke is an endless supply of doozies.

"When I get mad, and I get pissed, I grab my keyboard and I override a list. Of all the design patterns that won't be missed. You've made my `class Sh_t : public std::list<DesignPattern>`"

If you click the link, it shows a list of languages. I used this to make my choices at the beginning of this year. Java was my introduction into programming, and I am getting good at it now. Python is really not my thing. It works good, but I do make a lot more mistakes in it then what I did in Java. That said, I did make real world money from Python as my first application that a company is actively using right now. My next language I am learning is C# and I don't like it, or rather I don't like the course I have on it. I will fight with C# this weekend.

I HATE Kotlin, I feel Java is better as a language, but Kotlin suppose to be better in function?

But have not done anything in Rust yet. But if the matrix is going to be rewritten in Rust, I better look into it.
