7 Wonders of Programming


Recommended Posts

Ok, Here it is.

What do you think are the 7 best wonders/programs/hardware developments/etc you name it, any aspect of or related to programming since the cavemen started counting sheep?

 

Free leeway here guys, you can list ANYTHING related to programming, eg the best software developed.

 

My list is still compiling but the top two are

 

1) The Internet

2) Open Source Idea

3. Coffee and asprin!

 

if you've ever had a dead line looming with a half done project you'll know what i mean.

 

Oh yeah! Those two things keep you alive during Crunch Time.

 

and my addition to the list would have to be: source control

 

if youve ever worked with a team on a large project source control is a god send!

1) The ability to create things that you can interact with (instead of just static images or models)

2) The ability to do things that aren't possible in this world

3) Being the only person you know (not counting the internet) who can do it

4) The feeling you get when you solve a bug you previously thought unsolvable
