The Programmers Revenge

This is a hilarious article I discovered today in the dotnet zone forum. It is about how to write code in a way that nobody else will ever be able to maintain it. Even though I am not in the position to judge whether these pieces of advice are really applicable (a real programmer could enlighten us about it), they are written in a very funny way. A must-visit.

How To Write Unmaintainable Code

My favourite part:

"Randomly intersperse two languages (human or computer). If your boss insists you use his language, tell him you can organise your thoughts better in your own language, or, if that does not work, allege linguistic discrimination and threaten to sue your employers for a vast sum"
