How and Why I Don’t Write My Own Programs

There’s a popular saying I use often: “The painter’s house is always the last one to get painted.” I can’t say I know many painters personally to know for certain that this is true – which sorta makes the saying moot – but it serves as a fitting metaphor to today’s post. I guess I […]
