Personal Time Capsule
- prezjordan 14y agoI love looking back at the crummy things I've made[0]. It's the best way to see just how much you've learned. Not only the overall quality of the product, but little things, like refactoring abilities, readability, and following convention. Sidenote: Aperture science logo? EDIT: WOW, Portal came out 5 years ago?! [0]: http://jscal.es/2012/10/12/you-oughta-be-ashamed/ http://jscal.es/2012/10/12/you-oughta-be-ashamed/
- chimeracoder 14y agoA while back I created a script that reminds you about projects that you committed to some predefined period of time ago - a bit like Timehop[1], but for git commits. I've found it fun to see how my code (and my project interests!) have changed over time. [1]http://timehop.com/ http://timehop.com/
- carlob 14y agoI came here looking for an open source version of Apple's TimeCapsule. I left felling old: when I started writing my own code github didn't even exist!
- worldsayshi 14y agoIt might be that the author uploaded it past creation. But then again, it's written in python - which AFAIK became popular fairly recently.
- sc68cal 14y agoI've done the same - I have a Java program that I did for a university course in 2008. It's probably the ugliest thing ever, but it has sentimental value. https://github.com/sc68cal/Java-Distributed-Hash-Cracker https://github.com/sc68cal/Java-Distributed-Hash-Cracker
- mcherm 14y agoMatt is much younger than I am. I would love to see "time capsules" of my earliest programming efforts, but they were many years and many systems ago, and I no longer have the source.* Something like Github did not exist when I began programming. * - with the notable exception of a couple of things that I printed out on paper. Things stored electronically are now inaccessible on 5.25" floppy disks stuck somewhere in my attic. But a few things printed out on paper still survive.
