Why are we here?<\/h2>\n

Everyone makes mistakes! There is no getting around that so let’s face them head on and learn from our own and each other’s faux pas.<\/p>\n

There are a lot of great sites out there such as stackoverflow<\/strong><\/a> and Code Project<\/a> that help join specific coding problems with answers but we want to hear about how someone solved their problem even if it’s not directly related to a coding error.<\/p>\n

Our hope is that by not requiring private details, people will feel more free to share novel solutions and embarrassing mistakes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
