I like Joe Armstrongs 7 deadly sins. 1. Code you wrote you cannot understand a week later - no comments. 2. Code with no specifications. 3. Code that is shipped as soon as it runs and before it's beautiful. 4. Code with added features.

I know here most gas stations have a dispenser of disposable gloves you can use at the pump. Even with no virus kicking around holding a fuel pump is horrible, your hand stinks afterwards!
