"people are the source of, and solution to, all the problems you'll run into when building social software." The only problem related to the planet we inhabit are us. Hell, earth probably wants us dead, and plans a superstorm by the end of 2014. Problem is we are lying sons&daughters of and our lives as well as society itself is a cluster of phobia and risky business. How can coding be different? Its brutal, outright toxic and delirious. You can stare at recursive what not all day and they will not be better after 10 years, even though you will probably use/make them out of your sleeve. I don't favor DnD one bit, or byte. Whatever you fancy, but its epic that you would give it as a heirloom. 1UP for that
