Welcome to today’s episode where we dive into some standout bad habits even senior programmers can have. In a recent video, software expert Dave Farley reveals a character embodying the worst traits he's observed over his 40-year career in software engineering.

From ignoring coding standards to failing to write tests, these habits can seriously hinder a developer's effectiveness. Farley emphasizes, “Even the most experienced developers can slip into routines that undermine their work.” He points out that some senior programmers still struggle with not prioritizing code reviews or neglecting continuous delivery practices.

So, what can we learn from these pitfalls? It’s crucial to maintain discipline, actively seek feedback, and remain committed to best practices. By doing so, we not only improve our own coding skills but also foster a healthier development environment.

Stay tuned for more insights on how to build better programming habits and steer clear of those detrimental ones!
