As someone who spends time programming, I of course find myself in conversations with people who aren’t as familiar with it. It doesn’t happen all the time, but these discussions can lead to people coming up with some pretty wild misconceptions about what programming is and what programmers do.

  • I’m sure many of you have had similar experiences. So, I thought it would be interesting to ask.

    The things that make me a good programmer:

    1. I read error messages
    2. I put those errors in Google
    3. I read the results that come up

    Even among my peers, that gives me a leg up apparently.
