|
Complex design which involves too much time to debug if its not self written.
|
Show
|
Complexity, bloat, inconsistency, too much code that should never have been written.

|
Deadlines
|
Show
|
Deadlines set without a good estimation process

Documentation process

Show
|
Firmware can be frustrating because of non-intuitive SDKs, clunkiness of building, flashing/debug
|
Show
|
Frustrating problems that don't seem to have a good solution.
|
Show
|
Fully testing functionality to catch every edge case at the end of writing the code.
|
Show
|
Hacks, hardcoding, temporary throwable code etc.
|
Show
|
How much time is spent trying things until it works and how brittle it often is.
|
Show
|
I don't like full ownership of large projects by a single dev.
|
Show
|
It seems too hard. I don't like repeating previous work that I've already done multiple times.
|
Show
|
Legacy Code without comments or documentation. Maintaining Libraries for Legacy Hardware
|
Show
|
Libraries that contain unpatched bugs
|
Show
|
Long hours spent in debugging issues some time.
|
Show
|
Maintaining documentation
|
Show
|
Managerial anti-patterns.
|
Show
|
Managing dependencies between new and old code bases.
|
Show
|
My current level of understanding in the C language can lead me astray at times.
|
Show
|
Never an expert
|
Show
|
Never enough time. Crazy deadlines created by others.
|
Show
|
Never works first time
|
Show
|
No one can help me to debug the issue due confidentially of my projects.
|
Show
|
Not understanding what Javier wanted to do some time ago
|
Show
|
Nothing off the top of my head! I don't like writing bad code, or not knowing what best practice is
|
Show
|
OOP obfuscation
|
Show
|
Often not enough time to go back and perfect the code
|
Show
|
Overhead work. Documentation, source control, maintenance, etc.
|
Show
|
Poor tooling, cargo culting, fanboyism, unrealistic deadlines, ship it anyway, obsession
|
Show
|
Poorly scoped definition of done.
|
Show
|
Reading codebases with no tests or documentation
|
Show
|
Risk and Uncertainty associated with changes. The overwhelming number of edge-cases to test.
|
Show
|
Rushed timelines and large amounts of minor changes.
|
Show
|
Scale and learning curve is daunting. Too many assertions of a 'right' and 'wrong' way to do things.
|
Show
|
Sometimes it is difficult to jump into a project that has legacy code
|
Show
|
Sometimes not trivial at all. Embedded systems present Operating System and hardware dependencies.
|
Show
|
Standards for C++ changing constantly
|
Show
|
Tedious debugging, unclear errors occurring from typos or small coding syntax errors
|
Show
|
Tedious work like documentation.
|
Show
|
The debugging process
|
Show
|
The lack of country/continent-wise recognised certifications ala medicine professionals
|
Show
|
The non linearity between the time spent and the impact.
|
Show

The repetitiveness of testing
|
Show
|
Tight deadlines, and when the tech lead doesn't want to do anything too complex
|
Show
|

|
Show
|
To debug issues which are hard to reproduce

|
Show
|
Tricky at times
|
Show
|
Trying to explain to people who don't understand software, why building good software is important
|
Show
|
Unrealistic deadlines, unstable requirements, and having too many constraints on how I code
|
Show
|
Usually it is not possible to find perfect solution and need to compromise
|
Show
|
Vendor provided tools
|
Show
|
When it doesn't work + all the legacy crap
|
Show
|
When something small keeps something from working and is hard to find a patch out.
|
Show
|
When the legacy code is hard to understand and has a lot of redundant stuff that can't be removed
|
Show
|
Working around bugs/issues in vendor provided development environments.
|
Show
|

|
Show
|

|
Show
|
Working with previous, ill structured code
|
Show
|
Working with tightly coupled code and code generated by the IDE.
|
Show
|
Writing for other people's hardware, working around existing issues
|
Show
|
complexity that sometimes people do SW, that us caused by a gap in the design and solution grow
|
Show
|
dealing with requirements from people that don't fully know what they want.
|
Show
|
debugging
|
Show
|
debugging, legacy code, spaghetti code, compiling dependencies, cryptic test frameworks
|
Show
|
digging through legacy code not undertstood by many
|
Show
|
doing unit tests, sometimes we write tests that are not useful, and we do it only for the coverage
|
Show
|
gathering requirements
|
Show
|
getting stuck in the same step for long time. In one word, debugging.
|
Show
|
hard to read/understand code, slow tests, not having enough time to do it properly
|
Show
|
hard to solve bugs or when the code does not do what you expect it to do
|
Show
|
having to solve other people bugs
|
Show
|
i'd like to do more of it
|
Show
|
legacy code mess. lack of documentation. overly complex solutions to simple problems.
|
Show
|
long meetings
|
Show
|
management's misunderstanding of software
|
Show
|
micro-management and having to type
|
Show
|
n/a

not knowing why something doesn't work, spending hours on it
|
Show
|
running into syntax errors, having to dig too deep to solve a problem.
|
Show
|
taking forever to find bugs

that AI can do it now
