One of the feelings I enjoy most, in areas both hobby and professional, is that of looking back over old work and wondering how on earth did I manage this while knowing so little? Sure enough, I recently took stock of the code that used to underpin this site, and had that feeling in abundance. At first, vanity might present feelings of embarrassment or disdain for oneself, but pushing past that allows for a far more constructive outlook: if code you once wrote now looks 'bad' or 'wrong', it means you've improved since writing it.
full postHere's where I keep a chronological list of all the 'things' I've made. It's a bit of a nebulous category, but I'll try to keep it restricted to 'finished' (or more accurately, launched) projects.
