I was just doing some desktop cleanup (of the Windows desktop, that is) and found a txt file with the following quote inside:
A system is *never* finished -- there's always more
features to add -- therefore one must simply choose
one day to start using the system.
-- J.B. Rainsberger
(ed.: ...so why not make it day one?)

(going through the 500+ unread posts in my Yahoo! XP mailing list folder...)
Inspired by Ron Jeffries' Bowling For Smalltalk series of articles, Anthony Williams decided to do the same with C++ and convinced me not to ever look into C/C++ again (not too long ago, I almost bought a C++ tome second hand with the intent of refreshing my pointers).
I've never coded Smalltalk but the sheer terror of C++ templates, structs, and pointers is something I wouldn't mind never encountering again.
