I will hate you

hate.markdown

Dear C++ library writer,

1. If your library forces me to use new all over, I will hate you.

2. If your library has types with bogus values, I will hate you.

3. If the documentation for your library gets the terminology of its own domain wrong, I will hate you.

4. If I say "My God, it's full of stars!" when I see the function signatures in your library, I will hate you.

5. If your library uses #define instead of const or inline, I will hate you.

6. If your library has a base class of everything, I will hate you.

7. If your library has singletons, I will hate you.

8. If you think you can use a tool to automatically translate a library from Java, I will hate you.

9. If the classes in your library have such clear responsibilities that you call them "managers", I will hate you.

10. If your library does not play nice with the standard library, I will hate you.

11. If functions in your library return error codes instead of throwing exceptions, I will hate you.

12. If your library has public members that are designed to be used only from internal code, I will hate you.

13. If your library makes use of the global namespace, I will hate you.

14. If your library has types traits that don't play nice with SFINAE, I will hate you.

the problem with managers is that they tend to not follow the S in SOLID

I don't even know what this is about, I'm just here because I hate markdown.
