I’ve spent a lot of time working on a lot of different code. I’m fortunate in that I’ve been exposed to all three of the modern scripting languages and their communities. All of them, to varying degrees, bemoan their code. All of them, way too much of, bemoan the code of everyone else. Ruby is too clever, I can never figure out what’s going on or what to expect.

I’m lazy when it comes to code. Not in a bad way, but in an efficient way. I want to get to the crux of the matter quickly and move on. Truth be told, that’s why I like TDD—I don’t have to remember anything more than I need to know right now. My tests remember everything else I knew, but I digress. When I start evaluating a new library to see if its something I want to use, code is what I want to see.

Finally got around to converting some old code from SVN to Git and getting it up on GitHub. It’s like looking back through a time-warp actually, as most of the code hasn’t been touched since the summer of 2007. Nearly all of the code is usable, but it’s all abandoned at this point. If there’s something there that strikes your fancy and you’d be interested in forking it into your own project, feel free.
