Offtopic, but you know I never really thought Code Complete was that inspirational. But that's probably because i read it after having worked for a few years in the industry and seeing my fair share of bad code and legacy systems. Of course it was still a good read, and the topics covered were well researched, but not really a life changer for me. Did anyone else feel the same way? It seems that everywhere I go, people say this is THE book to read.
