  1. !techponies According to http://tinyurl.com/3tzf62p, there are approximately 16 bugs every 1000 lines of code. For some reason this made my eyebrows depart into the stratosphere when I read it.

    1. @pride woah what? Just 16? Apparently everything I code is too condensed. I'm pretty sure I've gotten a density of two bugs per line in one function before. !techponies

      1. @sci !techponies I then read a more recent paper from 2002 that said it could be anywhere between 2 or 75. According to the paper, that means that Linux kernels have roughly 150,000 bugs, and Windows XP about 300,000. #

    2. @rotation It's been so long since I've really coded anything that I don't remember any interesting storied off the top of my head. However, I do remember recently looking back and stuff and wondering "how the hell did I do that?" Example: apparently I coded a basic 3d engine with javascript. Using notepad and internet explorer. In my physics class. Then completely forgot about it. What the hell? !techponies

    3. @rotation ¯\(°_0)/¯ I honestly don't remember. I think I was just trying to get a grasp on how 3d transformations were done. And then looking at the source again, apparently I made the 3d thing in a different class. In physics class, I made a 2d ascii drawing engine thing, then rendered fractals for the rest of the school year. Didn't forget that. Good times. :3 http://youtu.be/-kyZW4bMQg0 !techponies
