littering

Some people avoid littering because it's wrong and disrepectful to others; others avoid littering because it's illegal and will cost them a fine.

Plus, there's already a decent typed objects polyfill available, so don't go littering your code with bitwise operations.

Not respecting lines, general littering, lack of attention to personal space (bumped by everyone, all the time).

They are littering their platform with features that further dilutes the experience that everyone used to like/love.

Of course littering my code-base with public members would be bad practice in the first place.

At the simplest, without changing the error model, littering the code with calls to try!

Hopefully it would lead to a tipping point in whole attitude and stop people littering unashamedly while keeping their living quarters clean..

Well, using it like that is one way to get around bitwise littering.

In fact, just their existence may be enough to quash most objectionable activity (snogging, urinating, allowing pet messes, littering).

I always thought that you should be logging this as cards in your backlog rather than littering the codebase.

Meteor does something similar with Fibers, but you wrap each function ahead of time, so you don't need to worry about littering Function.prototype.

I do find littering code with err checks can be annoying and ended up reaching a compromise.

Still never got used to the fact that the "tiny, slow chips" (I like that expression) littering my desktop are faster than the first three PC's I owned.
