Code snippet of the day

Handling exceptions is tricky. Opinions vary on whether you should catch and report to a central error handler, only catch exceptions you know how to recover from, or fail-fast and allow exceptions to bubble up until the program exits.

Our email management API takes a different tack:

void CEmailManagerExtension::CMDCreateMailbox

Haha, what a noob.

The correct approach is obviously Amazon affiliate codes.

Haha, that's brilliant! I found this while adding code to block phishing redirects. The question came up of where to send the viewer if we don't recognize the target... it should totally take them to Amazon with my affiliate code. Time for a last-minute checkin!
