This is not wrong, but for the majority of developers isn't it something like make people subscribe to Amazon Prime even if they only buy one book each year? I feel most people aren't so upset about the idea or reasons behind a ye

"[...]unit tests are not critical. If there’s no unit test the customer isn’t going to complain about that." Love this quote. It's absolutely true, but the programmers who inherit and have to take care of you code are probabl

Oooh... Ouch... Cancelation by emailing somebody is really not cool... That should be the sort of thing that can be done automatically with the hit of a switch. If you could get your programmer to set that up it would be a good step. Also,
