Like Keith Richards I like to get my blood swapped out every 6 months or so in Switzerland.
A few quotes from Ward - Inventor of the Wiki
Unprecedented mobility of information ... It is {} and []. Learn these characters. Put them to work.
"We're entering a period of unprecedented mobility of information. This is fueled by a de facto standard representation uniformly embraced by all important programming languages. It's not the CONS cell of Lisp, or the Struct of C, or the Record of SQL. It is the mashup of hash tables and flexible arrays at the center of Perl, Python, PHP, Ruby and JavaScript. It is {} and []. Learn these characters. Put them to work."
My advice to my prior self: pay more attention to how successful open projects work
"I've been slow to fully appreciate the creative power and the ultimate fragility of the open source movement. Agile and Open share many of the same values but have chosen sometimes dramatically different paths to achieving those values. My advice to my prior self: pay more attention to how successful open projects work. Open communities have mined Agile for ideas better than Agile communities mining Open. But for corporations, agility is an easier sell than openness. The inevitable logic of the latter is still hard to comprehend."
