My boss asked me to rewrite a class and while understanding that class behavior I saw this amazing over logic, anti-pattern example:
if (a != b || c == d){
if (c == d){
if(a != b){
}
}else{
}
}
Enjoy...

Someone thought a lot before coding that...

Fantastic work LMAO 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

It would be interesting to see what you proposed improvement for such logic is?
|
|
|
|
|
All that logic was unnecessary ( ), I just dropped that piece of code off.

Nice work....

Ah, that code is not complete the coder wrote that forgot the most important part. What if a!= b and c==d ?  We need another if in that one. Don't forget it in your new class
Microsoft ... the only place where VARIANT_TRUE != true

Careful.
We'll be laughing at your code next week

If that happens I'll learn something!

Neglecting the logic, just the curly brace placement makes me cringe.

Looks like another justification for my signature line. 
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

Doesn't necessarily mean an end to Bioshock - in fact the final paragraph more-or-less says as much, too -
"I'm handing the reins of our creation, the BioShock universe, to 2K so our new venture can focus entirely on replayable narrative."
They lost me with Bioshock2 - while I loved the Bioshock too, I was disgusted when I learned that (a) I couldn't play BS2 on the PC with a Xbox controller (some bullsh*t about the interface not being suitable for games controllers - yet the game is available on PS and XB  ), but the real clincher came when I (b) couldn't load a single-player game without being connected to the net. I paid for the game yet had to pay a third party simply to make the copy-protection happy. Thanks, but no thanks. I wouldn't buy another Bioshock game after that debacle. (Yes, I realize there are 3rd party work-arounds. It's not the point)
It also forced me into the GFWL/Steam horror-show. I never played it online yet was continually forced to dowload updates before bein able to just play. Being on a 3GB/$50 3G data-plan at the time, the costs were mounting-up fast. Elephant-that for a joke. Now I just buy 2nd hand PS3 games. My last trip cost $12 for The Bourne Supremacy($8) and RedFaction($4). Sure, they're oldish, but so is Doom - I still enjoy Doom3 and Quake4.
I ended up giving BS2 away to avoid the frustration all of these issues caused
Reading between the lines, I suspect that a number of decisions were taken out of the hands of those closest to the game, and that by concentrating on a smaller, 'flatter' team, there would be an ability to free themselves from the kinds of actions some would find unpalatable.
Shame really. The artwork was stunning and the devs fellow Ausies. I'm not going to support choices like that though. Even SimCity got an offline mode..

Sounds like a great news for me.
This is a creator's rally call for freedom. Only a free creator can create the great and unexpected.
I can't wait to see their next game, will most likely be a hit.

I'm not saying this because I'm Danish, but they're doing the right thing. And it's about time! I wish that Sweden would do the same (and other countries for that matter). Halal and Kosher slaughter is an abomination that shouldn't take place in the 21st century.
I have nothing against religion, but muslims and jews really should keep up with time instead of klinging themselves to 2000 year old "laws".
I'm just afraid that a ban will not be respected and that such slaughter will go on in the hidden. Hope that the Danish police will have the guts to follow up on this!

Please explain. And what has it to do with time? Would it be more acceptable in 1999?

While I respect all religions, (I too believe in God), holy requirements about what shall and shall not be eaten are pure BS. (Yes, and I know that for some of you the rest is pure BS as well, so no need to start a thread about it).
Religions *might* have justification about very controversial positions (homosexuality, abortion, ... you get the picture- and with that I mean, you could possibly derive a logical argumentation for these, but I fail to see why a God should want me to only eat this and not that. I really fail to see the logical link, especially since it *could* mean cruelty for the slaughtered animals1, which, after all, are also creatures of God.
1. I know this is still controversial.

I can understand food laws that were written 2000 years before refrigeration and meant for people living in a desert and without medicines.
But hey, times have changed.
We have hygiene now, and penicillin, and fridge-freezers.
BS laws on crap like this only ridicule further the already ridiculous posturing of the religionists.
Personally I dislike all religion, but especially the doctrines of cruelty found in them.
From the abuse of helpless children to the misogynist views they all espouse, and especially cruelty to animals.
I am not a veggie, I love meat, but I do not want my meat arriving on my plate via a cruel death.

If you undo one religious edict, you can undo them all eventually. That means, it's not a religion anymore, but a clubhouse. Either leave the religion entirely or believe in it as is, IMO.
