Ned’s writing

Ned Batchelder has an excellent collection of short essays, mainly on coding topics, but also about his son’s autism. Fascinating; while the coding ones don’t normally postulate anything new, they’re excellent and clear statements of stuff you knew already and could never be bothered to do, like how to write log messages, or why to use exceptions properly.

  1. Yeah, I missed them too. Not quite sure how, since I read Ned’s weblog too; that’s why I thought I’d flag them when I discovered them, in case anyone else had made my mistake—clearly I was not the only one :-)

  2. Cheers Aq. I’m a regular RSS reader of Ned’s blog, but completely missed these essays. And as you may remember, I have a passing interest in autism.
