From strategizeyourcareer.com•Jul 06, 2025•5m read time

Explores 10 engineering terms that help developers recognize common pitfalls and anti-patterns in software development. Covers concepts like footgun (dangerous defaults), god object (overly complex classes), leaky abstraction (exposed implementation details), bike-shedding (focusing on trivial issues), and broken window theory (how neglect spreads). Understanding these terms helps engineers identify risks early, communicate problems clearly, and build more maintainable software systems.
