Decreasing Your Suck Footprint
g33klady sends me word of an idea whose time hasn’t come, but it’s here anyway: Bad Code Offsets.
I have never written a bad line of code.
When I tell people that, they often scoff and offer replies like “so you’re not a programmer then?” and “let me guess, you’re a coding deity or something?” Well let me say, I am a programmer and I am not Codethulu, but in the same manner that Al Gore can fly around the world in a private jet without polluting, I have negated my bad code footprint through the purchase of Bad Code Offsets.
Nice if you’re selling coupons, but keep in mind the chief difference between carbon offsets and bad code offsets: Gore forgives, QA doesn’t.
