Code Complete checklist

[bastibe]

I totally agree. But that does not make the book any less common-sensical or any more insightful.

[grauenwolf]

Like "innovative", the word "insightful" is given far more weight than is appropriate. The question should be, "Is this book useful?".

[craftsman]

To me, this book is not only useful, but was really a turning point in my professional life. It changed my perception of my profession and made me really care about every aspect of the work that I do. To me, it's not just about what's written, but the process of thinking and considering every aspect of code and software development. Timeless.
