    30:25 - After finally getting some piece of code to work, you're only done with half the job; you should spend roughly the same amount of time cleaning it. No one writes clean code first because it's just too hard to get code to work.
    46:12 - Every line of a function should be on the same level of abstraction, and that level should be one below the name of the function.
    52:22 - Polite code allows the reader to exit (=stop reading) early.
    58:45 - A function does one thing if you cannot meaningfully extract another function from it.
    1:32:22 - To make a method pair safe (remove side effect), use a lambda that does all the processing.
    1:34:34 - A function that returns void must have a side effect, otherwise there would be no point in calling it. A function that returns a value should have no side effects.
    1:36:00 - A function that has a try/catch block should have no other content beside that block. Within the try block, there should only be a single function call (the actual function that throws the exception).

      1:13:10 Never pass a boolean to a function! Instead of that, create two differents functions. Maybe you duplicate some code, but you declare your intention with the method name, you remove a conditional and you don't read useless boolean values in the method call!

It was interesting how things changed over time when in the past, we knew there are better ways but there was just not enough 'time' and not enough powerful hardware.

      The concept of a "wormhole" or shortcut through space-time was first proposed by physicist John Wheeler in the 1950s, but it was popularized by the science fiction TV show "Star Trek" in the 1960s. In the show, the characters used a device called a "wormhole" to travel instantaneously to distant parts of the universe. While the existence of wormholes is still theoretical and has not been proven, they have captured the imagination of science fiction writers and readers for decades and continue to be a popular subject in science fiction today.

    So it's been a few years now since I returned to Uncle Bob, and wow... I must say. He inspired me way back when I was no longer a Junior and hoping to ascend into a more senior position. And now I'm finding myself equally nodding and shaking my head at several points he's mentioning. Predicting them or criticising them. He was not the only influence, but he was a pivotal person in putting me down the path of better code, to try things for myself and form my own opinions.
    And above all else, I noted just how well he delivered his sessions. He speaks about code, and there's definitely competency there that he builds upon. But his ability to teach, and capture attention, to narrate and inspire or motivate is impeccable. That's the next big challenge - present what you know to juniors and seniors, and do it in a way that leaves them wanting more, not nursing a headache!

If you need to understand a lower level of what's going on, then you go into one of the functions that the first function calls. However, most of the time you don't need to know that stuff in order to understand what you need to know.

      @@kidmosey You entirely missed the point of what he was saying. By abstracting the code into functions, and naming those functions well, your code becomes self documenting. It becomes obvious what it does by the variable and method names instead of getting bogged down in the implementation.
      Instead of a bunch of loops and conditional checks, you have something that reads like a sentence. Prose.
      Not only that, but by having your code broken into separate modules, each module becomes easier to debug/refactor/change.

    This was not only precious but very helpful to me. I though that breaking long functions would lead to more complicated code. However, having the mindset portrayed in this video, I managed to break my functions into its "do one thing" components, and even managed to eliminate redundant variables. And, not as I initially thought, my code is far more readable and maintainable. If there is a bug, you can quickly go to the function you think it is responsible for it, instead of zooming in into long functions and loose yourself.
    Props to this man! He enlightened me, made me see my own mistakes, and substancially made my life easier as a programmer.

      You were no supposed to understand what he talks about, you were supposed just to realize how cool the lector is, that's enough. And that's pretty much all he writes about, unfortunately, e.g. "now I'll give you simple rules how to write a good code", and then the reader-programmer comes to my team and writes the worst eye-gouging code I've ever seen in my life. Sad but true, no lector or couch can make you a good programmer without you putting a lot of afford yourself. Just like in soccer. And the worst kind of couch is the one which is not asking you to put the effort in.

      I believe this was all done live on a video switcher, the person controlling the video switcher has the mind of production, not programming... someone who thinks staying on the same 'shot' for too long is boring for the audience. This person probably didn't consider keeping the code up. To be honest I thought the production quality of this video was superb. They had someone on a camera tracking the speaker for almost 2 hours, they had someone switching camera feeds and adjusting audio. I dont know if you should say they should rethink their life lol.. it was really well done

      If your current employment prospect consists of a lot of "I want to develop better code, but the boss won't let me", you should consider applying elsewhere. The tide is *beginning* to turn against companies that don't comprehend the value of code quality, and I think any companies that don't realize this quickly enough are going to be caught in the undertow. I'm not qualified to assess whether this change actually has the momentum I think (and frankly hope) it has, but nonetheless I urge you to consider whether it's worth the inefficiency of beating your head against the wall when there are other companies out there.

    Fun to see different "authorities" in this anarchic profession stand on a stage and expunge, in total confidence, diametrically opposite advice.
    Uncle Bob is clearly a big OOP fan. As a programmer in my mid-fourties, I tend to agree with most of the do-s and don't-s he presents here. But it is pretty easy to find functional programming gurus, or even just plain old structural programming proponents, offering the opposite advice in almost every respect.
    Neither side is very good at explaining why their approach is supposedly better, and both sides manage to produce a few plausible code examples that make it seem they're onto something.
    I think this was a good presentation, Bob is doing a good job. Even so, I honestly don't think he is very convincing. He's really just telling us his opinions. A big exception is the part in the beginning where he points out the *need* for software development to grow up and become more responsible and accountable, but that doesn't mean his ideas for _how_ to accomplish this are any better than competing ideas. And, given how many devs really like this whole idea of us being some kind of rebels, I think there is just about zero hope this will happen. The industry will have to become regulated, and it won't be fun....

    @ceyceycey21 3 года назад +12

    Great talk, I really enjoyed it. But I have to point out two things.
    First of all, he was a little dissmissive about the lambdas (1:32:00) which I think is a huge feature that Java lacked for a long time. Sure they can be thought of as being isomorphic to classes where captured enviroment maps to the fields and body maps to the body of the known method. But it is a huge ergonomics change, you don't need to write new Function() { Integer run(Integer i) { return i * 5 }, you can simply write i -> i * 5. This reduces clutter and enhances readability which should be the point of clean code, isn't it?
    Second point is, he claimed, at 1:33:38, that his open function is side-effect free, which is incorrect. It still does have a side effect (an effect that can be observed from outside, which in this case is whatever the proc does, like writing to that file). But he can claim that his function is rather resource-safe which is actually what he is talking about when he mentioned managed side effects (not leaking resources like open files, unreleased semaphores etc.). Also it would be better if he mentioned that he had to use try-finally to be absolutely sure that the resource is released no matter what. At this point he could mention non-compositional nature of try-catch as well and point us in the direction of functional effect systems like cats-effects, ZIO, etc. :)

    The specific advice he gives is very OOP-centric.
    For instance, in functional languages you have case expressions which don't have the same pitfalls of switch statements. And you wouldn't want to (or couldn't) make variables into globals, but you can easily return more than one value as a tuple or a record.
    Turning everything into classes seems to be encouraging functions to have side effects, but pure functions are always easier to reason about.

      If your object exists as a local then it doesn't have side effects when it goes out of scope, just like the rest of the functions locals.
