Do Women Write Better Code

Do Women Write Better Code?
The senior vice-president of engineering for computer-database company Ingres-and one of Silicon Valley’s highest-ranking female programmers-insists that men and women write code differently. Women are more considerate of those who will use the code later,Chanel Handbags, she says. They’ll intersperse their code-those strings of instructions that result in nifty applications and programs-with helpful comments and directions, explaining why they wrote the lines the way they did and exactly how they did it. The code becomes a type of “roadmap” for others who might want to alter it or add to it later, says McGrattan, a native of Ireland who has been with Ingres since 1992. Men, on the other hand, have no such pretenses. Often, “they try to show how clever they are by writing very cryptic code,” she tells the Business Technology Blog. “They try to obfuscate things in the code,” and don’t leave clear directions for people using it later. “

Wild
Saturday, November 28, 2009 | 2:50 pmThoreau says “give me a wilderness no civilization can endure.” That’s not difficult to find. It is harder to imagine a civilization that wilderness can endure, yet this is just what we must try to do. Wildness is not just the “preservation of the world,” it is the world.
The Chinese spoke of the “four dignities”,Chanel Handbags; – Standing, Lying, Sitting, and Walking. They are “dignities” in that they are ways of being fully ourselves, at home in our bodies, in their fundamental modes. I think many of us wold consider it quite marvelous if we could set out on foot again, with a little inn or a clean camp available every ten or so miles and no threat from traffic, to travel across a large landscape – all of China, all of Europe. That’s the way to see the world: in our own bodies.
The Practice of the Wild is a book by the great American poet Gary Snyder. I started reading it yesterday and instantly knew I was loving it. This one is prose, not poetry, but what an eloquent and wise man Gary Snyder is.

Selling one’s soul
Wednesday, November 18, 2009 | 1:13 pm.Here’s an interesting item from the blog of Susan Ople.
I have this on good authority.
Detained Navy Lt. SG Antonio “Sonny” Trillanes was recently offered campaign funds amounting to P4 million by a known jueteng lord. Despite meager funds, certainly not enough to finance a full-blown TV ad campaign, the senatorial candidate of GO refused the offer.
That P4 million would have been enough to at least cover the expense of a few radio spots, campaign posters, and mobilization costs of his volunteers. That he turned it down speaks volumes about this young guy’s principles.
I never agreed with the Magdalo’s mutiny, no matter how romantic or idyllic the notion behind it. But I believe in second chances, not just for him but for all of us as well.
Still, there is a cynical belief in the political world that honesty doesn’t get one elected. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to prove these cynics wrong?
We followed up Susan’s tip and we learned that the jueteng lord is from Central Luzon.
Another young man who did not succumb to monetary blandishments is GO (Genuine Opposition) spokesman Adel Tamano. We know from reliable sources that the young Tamano was offered P50 million, a condo unit and a car to join Team GMA.
Guesting at Bulung-Pulungan sa Philippine Plaza yesterday, Tamano humbly declined to confirm the monetary offer. All he could say was there was an offer for him to run under Team GMA.
The young Tamano said he does not pretend “,Chanel Handbags;to be a paragon of virtue” but he feels closer to the advocacies of the opposition for good governance, transparency and honesty in government.
Honesty and transparency are things that re-electionist Eduardo Angara would rather not talk about. In interviews, Angara prefers not to remember those days in 2004, when together with fellow Team GMAers,Mulberry Handbags, Tito Sotto and Tessie Oreta, exposed the massive cheating that Gloria Arroyo committed against Fernando Poe Jr.
Now, Angara is confident he will not suffer the fate of FPJ. In an interview with Inquirer’s Gil Cabacungan,Chanel Handbags, Angara repeated the ribbing of his friends in the academe that by siding with the administration, “you’ll be sure your votes will be counted.”
Cabacungan quoted Angara as saying “It’s quite cynical but realistic.”
Angara also said the resources-challenged opposition “will wash in the end and what will count is the local organization. Gloria can bring out the mayors and governors. When she goes, she brings … thousands of sacks of goodies, of rice, whatever.”
This is spoken by a man who takes education as one of his advocacies. After all, not so long ago, wasn’t he president of the University of the Philippines?
Looking at Angara and the rest of Team GMA, I think of the biblical passage, “For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?”
