What if Visual Studio had Achievements? January 25, 2011
What if Visual Studio supported achievements, just like games on Steam, Xbox or PS3? Bragging to your coworkers about which one you’ve just unlocked, imagine that! Here’s a little proposed list for some of them. .NET / C# flavored, of course.

Inspired by Steam Holiday sales and Battlefield Bad Company 2. Odd web coding exposed on the most minimalistic company page possible. Enjoy.
Update: Jeff Sandquist from Microsoft’s Developer Relations told us that they are going to make this happen! Check out their Coding 4 Fun and Channel 9 projects. More details to follow.
Update 2: An extension is now available for Visual Studio!

It’s “brillant”, not “brilliant” (only 1 ‘i’).
@Paul: Huh, didn’t know that. Ingrained in my mind as Brilliant, even when glancing over the original article. “Corrected”
Paul, both Dictionary.app and The Google disagree with you:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=define%3A+brillant&btnG=Search
Paul T., The Daily WTF disagrees with you:
http://thedailywtf.com/Articles/The_Brillant_Paula_Bean.aspx
Paul T, its a reference to
http://thedailywtf.com/Articles/The_Brillant_Paula_Bean.aspx
Paul T.: You obviously didn’t get the reference
that’s hilarious! my apologies.
One of the funniest ideas on the Net, hope M$ grab this one!
“The Engineer – Killed a zombie with The Wrench”
What
Where would a java guru fit here?
Love them! I’m sending this out to all the rest of the faculty. You need a “Pigeon-holer” award for using the [Flags] attribute on your enum, then a “Pigeon-stacker” award for storing a bitwise enum with more than 5 values.
The Daredevil – UpdatePanels nested more than 3 layers deep
Should read..
Inception – UpdatePanels nested more than 3 layers deep
I realize the list is satirical but I have to say it … I wouldn’t hire anyone who was proud of most of those achievements.
This is just SO AWESOME XD
-> Steam Powered – Added Visual Studio as a Steam game
I didn’t even know you could do that xDD Damn, but it would be depressing to see the amount of hours spent on it…
Add
The Oracle – Complete a project without a single line of comment
[...] by rudib to programming [link] [104 comments] reddit: the voice of the internet — news before it happens @ [...]
Here’s another :
The Numerologist: Name all your controls: control1, control2, control3, etc…
Awesome and very recognizable, esp. Sword Fighter and Warm Bath
Here is a new one: The Evangelist – Created at least one project for every project type.
This is awesome, achievements is such an obvious idea, why hasn’t someone made an VS add-in for this? Maybe when Xbox Live comes to Windows….
Another suggestion,
The Janitor – Converted a VB 6 project to VB.NET
Once you get each one of these, post the source. I could learn some new skills by the examples.
Actually, it could be possible doing most or all of this with a plugin for VS. It’s a shame I’m too busy with stuff to actually sit down and write one myself.
[...] [...]
Rage Quit should be: Alt-F4 after an unsuccessful build.
Awesome! Please someone go and build an Eclipse plugin for this one
[...] for any programmers out there check this out, made me laugh. What if Visual Studio had achievements? You all know they are true and you would have earned alot of them [...]
I’d definitely program a lot more if this existed!
I know a lot of others wouldn’t though…
>The Janitor – Converted a VB 6 project to VB.NET
Instead, here’s one for my VB.NET peeps:
“The Productive Independent – Converted a VB 6 project to VB.NET and enjoyed it, ignoring uneducated comments”
Good times.
Hilarious, Rudi! The devs here at Vertigo are loving this.
Did you just revolutionize the programming industry? I can see managers now telling an employee where is your TPS report achievement. The best thing about your descriptions is that most are actually implementable.
The Daredevil – UpdatePanels nested more than 3 layers deep should be “Check your Totem – UpdatePanels nested more than 3 layers deep”…. but really nice idea
Brilliant!
My $0.05:
Bard – typed at least 100 keystrokes in sync with the currently playing music.
Keyboard Ninja – sequentially pressed 200 keys from the set “direction arrows, home, end, page up, page down, ctrl, shift, alt”, with no other keys in between.
The Plotter – 50 consecutive lines of code only containing GDI+/System.Drawing calls.
Dark Legacy – implemented a binary COM interface in C# without a type library.
The Potter – created an application that displays a spinning Utah teapot in 3D.
Spock – All project names are Star Trek references.
Zoolander – Project names are arcane animal species.
Black Hole – Millions of lines of code never see production.
The Troll: Checked in a file where the only thing changed was some other devs initials to your own.
Marry Ayn Rand: Code as cleverly as possible and if other devs cant figure it out, they should be fired.
The Resharpest: Check in a file after the only changes were running Resharper Code Cleanup.
Do the Houdini: Name classes after common design patterns, but do not implement the design patten in them.
This is a fun game.
Jesse
Where’s the badge for Code Analysis?
The CA1337 – Compiled a large project with no code analysis warnings after spending much time doing so and achieving very little.
I laughed out loud when I saw brillant. my favorite daily wtf entry ever.
The best part of this is how it displays your knowledge of the stack in some seriously diverse scenarios – you’ve covered some ground, mang. Anybody who uses it will nod and laugh at least once while reading this, probably several times. Much respect.
Adobe Flash Builder should incorporate something like this..
Awesome! I’m glad I’m not the only one to ragequit on occasion
How about adding:
“Copy machine: Using copy-paste to insert more than 100 lines at a time”
Sorry – totally missed “The Cloner”. /facepalm
[...] Este post é uma tradução de um post hilário. O original está aqui: http://blog.whiletrue.com/2011/01/what-if-visual-studio-had-achievements/ [...]
No seriously, though. This should be an VS extention.
The Ninja – Wrote an empty method and ran it in debug mode with a break point just to use the immediate window then close out the VS.
The achievement for opening a new visual basic project should be “IP Tracker”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkDD03yeLnU
whats funny is this would actually make people work harder, there would be the office achivement whores. Life should have achievments to encourage people to do better. and you get a LifeScore instead of a GamerScore
Loved the list!
Here’s another one:
Xanadu: Created a game in C# using the XNA framework
heforget about one:
I’m Idiot– Created a new C Project
The Juggler – running multiple instances of VS at the same time
The Architect of Doom – Hit windows forms control limit (65K) on a single form
Spaghetti Bolognese – Using the goto statement
The Explorer – 100% Code coverage.
Look Ma is dumb. A better one on that topic would be:
Streamer – wrote a recursive iterator method.
[...] What if Visual Studio had Achievements? – An amusing look at what some of the achievements would be in the Visual Studio IDE rewarded you for the good / bad code you write. [...]
“The Mathematician – Defined 15 local variables with a single character name”
That’s just one for me. It annoys the hell out of other developers. But since I base much of my programming on mathematical definitions of algorithms, I find it easier for me to understand, to use the same variables. Only annoyance is that I can’t write greek letters.
s(i, a) = s(i, a) + α * (r * γ * m – s(i,a)) looks beautiful!
Hahaha! This was a great read while I ate my breakfast
Here are Git’s achievements http://benjamin-meyer.blogspot.com/2010/03/git-achievements.html
Loved it!
The one I loved the most was Falling Down – Created a new SharePoint project
F… EPIC. I wanna implement this
Golf Clap!

To answer directly the question in the title: What if Visual Studio had achievements… It would be even more bloated, slow and painful to deal with than it is today. Pass.
http://www.teamfortress2.fr/achievements.php?eng
There you go, use this, its gonna make it cooler.
Love it! The Portal – Created a circular project dependenc – is pretty hard to achieve with VS2010, as it’s not allowed, but one could always edit the project with the result of “error MSB4006: There is a circular dependency in the target dependency graph…”
But that should get you the achievment
And yes, it’s quite possible to create an addin for many of the achievments, but it would involve quite some work both to implement AND to test! (I couldn’t even start working on “Look Ma”
Wow, very cool. Nice to have spare time…. hahaha
Where is Actionscript achievements?
Terry
The Compound Sentence – created a method name containing one or more of the words: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so.
The Graffiti Artist – added a philosophical, rebellious, provocative, or humorous comment accompanied by ASCII art.
The Name Dropper – made a relevant pop culture reference in the form of a variable, method, or class name.
Great post! Here are a few more:
The Hungarian – Name your variables and controls: strbldOut, btnButton1, etc.
Godlike – Check “Disable all warnings” in the Compiler tab of your project.
The Daredevil – Generate inline SQL statements from user input.
The Validator – Override the JavaScript “__V()” function in an ASP.NET project.
Cool list. Got some more:
Wormhole – Deliver a project ahead of schedule.
Budgeteer – Deliver a project while staying under budget.
I Speak Many Tongues – Create a solution with multiple projects that each use a different language.
Doc Master – Write comments for every class, interface, method, and variable. Even private ones.
Assemble This! – Write a project all in MSIL.
The Archivist – Added 10 projects to source control
Globe Trotter – Implemented 20 different languages into an application
Wild Globe Trotter – Implemented 20 different languages into an application without using any built in methods
Resourceful – Actually created a working resource DLL using VB
Overloaded – Create a method with more that 10 overloads
And to expand on Antek’s…
The Virtual Juggler – Running multiple instances of VS at the same time in multiple Virtual Machines
Clone wars – create a project from scratch with nothing more than copy/paste
Rage Quit should really be “Kill Visual Studio after a failed bug fix, via Task Manager” Take it down from the knees.

My achievements…

The Academic – Written 1000 lines of F#
Spaghetti Monster – Written a single line with more than 300 characters
Wild One – Mixed tabs and spaces for indentation more than 5 times in a single line
The Multitasker – Have more than 50 source files open at the same time

Paying the bills – Imported a Visual Basic project
First Hit – Included a Codeproject.com library into your project and it actually compiled
Every Option Considered – Created an enum with more than 30 values
Hillarious. But this one does not compute:
Wild One – Mixed tabs and spaces for indentation more than 5 times in a single line
Don’t normally have tabs and spaces on a single line but maybe that was your point.
OCD – Check in code after doing nothing more than reformatting to your indentation standards.
Hi there,
My team creates Channel 9 and Coding 4 Fun at Microsoft.
http://channel9.msdn.com
http://channel9.msdn.com/coding4fun
We’ve been talking about creating an add-in for Visual Studio for a little while that does bring achievements to the proiduct. We love that you all love the idea too, so we’re going to go make it happen.
We’ll follow up more with specifics and look forward to getting this up and running soon with your ideas.
Thanks!
-Jeff
Senior Director, Developer Relations
Microsoft
I’d like to add some achievements to the list:
“The Yes Man” – Write a class that has 5 or more empty catch{} blocks.
“Going in Blind” – Write and publish a Console Application that uses an API that is not installed on your local machine.
“…And The Kitchen Sink” – Publish a Web Application with all files including source code.
Brilliant. Funny. Sadly, I’ve earned a few!
If only the achievements guided you towards better coding, or getting to know Visual Studio / .net / c# better this would make sense as a way of showing what kind of stuff you have looked into.
Simply having 50 source files open at once is nuts
‘Achievements’ for developers are certifications I guess.
@Jeff Sandquist,
Awesome, but I’m a little worried that some people are going to start “farming” achievements in their projects…
“Event driver”: add more than 30 events to one control
@rei – we’ll do our best to ensure people earn achievements fairly.

Magic-maker – 5 or more magic numbers in a method
Origami Sensei – 10+ regions in a single class
Rain man – Have more abstract classes and interfaces than callable classes in a solution
This is a great idea. Please do it and let it go on my live id. I can’t wait.
I think it’s a great idea that Visual Studio has achievements. However, the achievements should not encourage bad behaviour. We don’t need programmers do bad code, we want them to do good code.
The reason why there is Office Hero was to teach the users functionality they otherwise would miss. Achievements for VS should do this as well, so that the user can write good code and try out language or IDE features that users miss outon.
