> It was fun, too; much like debugging code with your hands. Okay, what evidence do I have to work with? Of these several hypothesises, which are the most likely? And, just like code, sometimes you spend the afternoon going down what you thought was the right path only to find out you're wrong.
Reminds me of reading "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance"
- mikestew 11y agoThen you'll understand why I've actually worn out paperback copies of ZAMM. ;-) "Gumption traps", oh, I know exactly what Pirsig was talking about. Seriously, it's a book that really spoke to me, and probably largely because of being both a mechanic and motorcyclist. So it's no coincidence if some of the stuff I write sounds like something out of ZAMM, because I'm probably just (poorly) paraphrasing something I read years ago, flavoring it some real-life experience.
