45 minute coding sessions



"A musician that only played on stage would not get too many along to their concerts"

Take a principle



  • "Good methods are short"

  • "Encapsulating primitives is good"

Turn it up to 11



  • No method can have more than 2 lines

  • No primitives can go across boundaries

some constraints


Always the same problem domain:


Pair programming


but did you notice?


no constraint over things like:

technology
language
framework
IDE
compiler

lots of games



future me


Who the fuck wrote this test?

What the fuck were they thinking?





*oh, it was me

evil coder


Well the test goes green...

again, again?
