   Good coding is art.

     @nixCraft so true... you can learn a lot about him just reading his coding

     @nixCraft I like the way Linus always described it as “good taste”.

     @nixCraft not every art is good art. There seems to be people preferring various types of outsider art styles. Some of these perverts even start class names with lowercase letters.

     @nixCraft I suspect that any craft mastered and elevated to the level of intuitive creation crosses over into art.

     There are no lessons available for cutting Gordian knots. As much as we might sometimes pretend that coding is all about perfect execution of engineering best practices, the Muse is still a big part of really good code.

     @nixCraft I'm wondering, what if a bad coder claims his code is good but ahead of time, like Picasso?
