    Neat, I skimmed through "metaphors we live by" a few weeks ago and can't stop applying it everywhere. I recently wrote a post that's kind of on "GOOD CODE IS CLEAN" [1]. I can't re…

    I relate to this. I'm writing whatever scratches my itch, and most of the value comes from the writing itself. But, of course it'd be nice if some people read what I wrote? When I …
