“Quality happens only when someone is responsible for it.” –Poul-Henning Kamp (A Generation Lost in the Bazaar)
“A good programmer is someone who looks both ways before crossing a one-way street.” –Doug Linder
Reading • An Oral history of Unix • A Research UNIX Reader: Annotated Excerpts from the Programmer’s Manual, 1971-1986 • Design of design - Frederick P Brooks • The Fifth Discipline - Peter Senghe
