>"You've got to be willing to read other people's code, and then write your own, then have other people review your code. You've got to want to be in this incredible feedback loop where you get the world-class people to tell you what you're doing wrong." -Bill Gates
>"Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a
violent psychopath who knows where you live. Code for readability." -John Woods
