maturing code

November 11, 2002 by Eric Richardson

It's funny looking back on the different levels of coding style I've been at throughout the years. Today in some work I was doing in eThreads I ran across this gem:

${${$g}[1]}{title}

Yeah... That's readable... From inside to out, a ref to an array whose element contains a ref to hash that has an element named title. Of course, the proper way to write that is:

$g->[1]->{title}

Obviously I did not know this at the time.

raining....

So it's raining in LA. That means basically that I don't go outside. Anywhere else I wouldn't care, but here in LA the rain seems so much worse because of its abnormality. It's a good day to stay indoors. Unfortunately I need to make a run for Ralphs sometime.

fun with doctors

So yesterday I finally got around to taking my arm to the health center. They fussed at me for not having it there earlier, but checked it out and didn't find anything more than some possible tearing in the muscle. The tendon's fine, though, and everything tracks right, so it's nothing a little ibuprofen won't fix. My arm is definitely a nice shade of green and yellow today.

weekend roundup

Yeah... So... I've been doing stuff. This weekend I was in San Diego for a waterski tournament, and managed to come really close to seriously messing up my arm by finding a way to fall and get a handle around my bicep. As it was, I just ended up with a nice bruise. We launched the trojan waterski site on Thursday, though, so that's cool. Tomorrow morning I'm driving to Palm Springs to see Colby golf. He had a rough first day, but he is Conference USA Co-Golfer of the Month.
