🧠 Cognitive Load In Software Development
Hi, I do research about the cognitive factors of programming. I just completed my Ph.D. at Stanford involving studies of cognitive load in program comprehension, as detailed here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2101.06305 Thanks...
@erni27 suggested a new section [here](https://github.com/zakirullin/cognitive-load/pull/12). That's a very good idea, actually. We can start sharing our thoughts to see what would emerge. People overcomplicate things for the sake of...
The handbook needs a good section on the code documentation. From the top of my head I could only come up with a bad and improved example, but it seems...
This isn't an "issue" but I just wanted to write a note of support 🎉 A lot of the useful tips and tools mentioned in this document are worth learning...
Some time ago I watched on Youtube this [talk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UANN2Eu6ZnM) from Raymond Hettinger about the `Mental Game of Python` where he gives some examples of cognitive load. If you are interested...
 Having web app for people to record and share where their cognitive Action Points are spent would help many stubborn devs and (maybe even more important) unaware managers to...
Hi @zakirullin , your article is good :) Btw, this example is some kind wrong as code (though it looks the same in domain-space) The above code acts like a...
Hi! Great stuff! WDYT about the following non-technical strategies to address cognitive load when faced with unfamiliar code: 1. While trying to understand a piece of code: a. Take notes...
