In this episode Keith and Woody sit down with friend and traveling developer Corey Haines. Here's a question, how many times have you written comments in your code? Probably a lot! In this show Corey gives some valid reasons why developers shouldn't have comments in their code (with a few exceptions). The guys also discuss pair programming, what it is, how it is done, and the benefits of doing it.

Corey Haines is currently a freelance developer and journeyman, traveling around to pair-program with other developers. He is an active member in the software craftsmanship movement, focusing his attention on post-apprenticeship activities. He started programming in the early 80's by cheating at video games (they weren't compiled back then) and fell in love with development as a teenager. He currently specializes in Ruby, but will pair in just about any language you want. Corey can be reached via his website: www.coreyhaines.com Twitter http://twitter.com/coreyhaines |
