A compilation of software development techniques using Steve Ballmer as a mentor. Feel free to fork & add.

If you don't get want you want talk louder then your opponent [http://www.businessinsider.com/steve-ballmer-retiring-2014-3]
If that doesn't work throw a chair [http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2011/11/cloud-foundry/]
Use the nuclear option (leaving the project) as leverage [http://www.businessweek.com/news/2014-03-05/microsoft-ceo-nadella-inherits-legacy-of-ballmer-board-division#p1]
If a compromise is the result use the nuclear option anyways [http://www.quickmeme.com/Blackjack-Bender]
When your plan fails place blame on not adopting your plan sooner [http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/03/04/microsoft_steve_ballmer_oxford/]
The best way to achieve market share is developers, developers, developers.

Code is clean if it can be understood easily – by everyone on the team. Clean code can be read and enhanced by a developer other than its original author. With understandability comes readability, changeability, extensibility and maintainability.

General rules

Follow standard conventions.
Keep it simple stupid. Simpler is always better. Reduce complexity as much as possible.
Boy scout rule. Leave the campground cleaner than you found it.
Always find root cause. Always look for the root cause of a problem.

Programming Quotes

"Formal education will make you a living. Self-education will make you a fortune."

	[T]he difference between a bad programmer and a
	good one is whether he considers his code or his
	data structures more important. Bad programmers
	worry about the code. Good programmers worry about
	data structures and their relationships.
	-- Linus Torvalds
	~~~
	Clarity and brevity sometimes are at odds.
	When they are, I choose clarity.
	-- Jacob Kaplan-Moss

	var LatLngList = new Array (new google.maps.LatLng (52.537,-2.061), new google.maps.LatLng (52.564,-2.017));
	// Create a new viewpoint bound
	var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds ();
	// Go through each...
	for (var i = 0, LtLgLen = LatLngList.length; i < LtLgLen; i++) {
	// And increase the bounds to take this point
	bounds.extend (LatLngList[i]);
	}
	// Fit these bounds to the map
	map.fitBounds (bounds);
