Lo, I hath toiled in the codebase of Ahimelech!
The Parable of the Managers. Goest thou, oh managers of IT, and learnest thou the truth of the way of the profit. For I hath toiled in the codebase of Ahimelech, and many times I hath reverse-engineered and finished the undocumented projects of those servants who hath...Geek Envy Redux
Because I had geek envy, I upgraded my version of Movable Type. Thus far it looks like it was completely painless. Of course, I did RTFM first. 😉 Hopefully you won’t notice at all.Geek Envy
