Heh. Well, some of the bits of code I’ve been complaining about
for three months finally got noticed by my boss. He seems to
agree that they suck (no one else seems to…). Thats the good
news. The bad news is he wants to rewrite them under pretty
extreme time pressure. At least for the most part, it someone
else’s code, though it most likely will change the way some
of the uglier bits of my code.

It’s kind of warped version of “build or buy”. Except, were
not buying anything. Guess it’s more of a ‘reinvent it
here, or add even more dependencies” issue.

In non boring work blabber, stumbled across
industrial.org. I never
really considered myself a fan of “industrial’ music,
but most of the stuff linked off there seems pretty cool.
Guess I just got burned on the early 90’s “bad
drum machine beat, metal riff played on keyboard,
insert voice sample from movie here” crap that seemed
to be so common at the time. But then, I do like Ministry
from that time period, so who knows…
