Things I believe

This is a collection of the things I believe about software development. I have worked for years building backend and data processing systems, so read the below within that context.

Agree? Disagree? Feel free to let me know at @JanStette. See also my blog at www.janvsmachine.net.

Fundamentals

Keep it simple, stupid. You ain't gonna need it.

Python is not a great programming language.

It's great for beginners. Then it turns into a mess.

• What should be good
• What's "meh"

Project Handover

Here are a few of my OSS projects that are still looking for new maintainers. DM me via Twitter if you want to take any of them over (@NeoNacho). If you take over a project, please follow these rules:

• Do not claim to be the original author, so the license should retain my name, but feel free to add yourself to it once you have made any substantial contributions. If the current README mentions my name or Twitter handle, keep that information intact if you make edits, but you can move it around as you see fit.
• If at any point in the future, you want to stop maintaining the project and you cannot find anyone to take it over, please add an unmainted badge (see here) to the README and transfer the project back to my GitHub account (@neonichu). That will allow me to find a new maintainer myself or to at least keep the project available for historical purposes.
