Coincidentally, I only just read this entertaining anecdote earlier today because I have to support a VBA application and thought I′d check out https://stackoverflow.com/tags/vba/info https://stackoverflow.com/tags/vba/info for good resources to get up to speed on it (coming from a Unix background). This was the last link on that page and knowing Joel’s a great writer, I read it first. I particularly liked this summation: > He didn’t meddle in software if he trusted the people who were working on it, but you couldn’t bullshit him for a minute because he was a programmer. A real, actual, programmer.
