I love pimp my code

Pimp My Code, Part 6: The Pimp Before Christmas

(Via Call Me Fishmeal..)

If you aren’t reading Wil Shipleys blog, and you are a programmer, you should read his blog. He has a series he calls “Pimp my code”, which is basically a public code review/code flogging. He not only shows what he would change about the submitted code, but he explains why he changed it. Sure it’s all in Objective-C, and you may not have any interest in Objective-C. But the explanations he gives could apply to almost any language. You may not always agree with what he is saying, and a lot of times the commenters don’t, but at least you understand why he made the change and why you disagree with him.

I wish more talented programmers would do things like this.
