Developers coding cycle:

Start of Project - "Right, I am going to make this code clean and structured."

Deadline looming - "F**k it, just throw the code in there and get it finished".

Enough said

when there is no coffee left...

When you look back at old code and think "Why the hell did I write it like that?"

When a JSON structure returns back as:
{
"array_data" : {
"123" : {
"id" : 123,
"name" : "NAME"
},
"176" : {
"id" : 176,
"name" : "NAME"
},
"189" : {
"id" : 189,
"name" : "NAME"
}
}
}

Instead of:

{
"array_data": [
{
"id": 123,
"name": "NAME"
},
{
"id": 176,
"name": "NAME"
},
{
"id": 189,
"name": "NAME"
}
]
}

Project Manager: "You have until x date, but how far off are you from finishing"

Me: "How long is it until x date, there is your answer"

Has anyone else noticed that Inc.com article titles are extremely clickbaity? Seriously though!
Given that, I've built Wormbait for node, it "learns" from 1040 Inc.com titles and predicts if a title is clickbait or not. `npm install -g wormbait` and launch with 'wormbait "is this clickbait"'

When you start using Android ButterKnife and you realise that @BindView(R.id.best_text) TextView bestText; is alot nicer to write than TextView bestText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.best_text);

Some developers just want to annoy other developers

`var IS_DEV = true

if(!IS_DEV) {
//do stuff for production
} else {
//do stuff for dev
}`

Why don't you just do `if(IS_DEV)`...

I could calculate the percentage of a value from a total set right from the top of my head. This includes large numbers like for example; finding the percentage of 1040 from 75000 = 1.377%, 344 from 5400 = 6.37% and so on...

But most times when I come across scenarios to apply such calculations on code I find myself googling for formulas and then I wonder; how am I able to come to a valid result when faced with similar challenge but could not recall or tell the formula my funny brain is deriving it's results from.

Maybe my brain isn't even using a formula. :/
So I guess because from pondering on how I arrived at results, I could tell I'm starting from an "if"...
Like:

If 25 of 100 = 25%
and 45 of 250 = 18%
Then 450 of 2400 will equal 18.7...%

Ask me what formula was used in the first "if" condition and I can't tell because that's common sense for me.
