			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>DHH.  I hate you.  Wait I love you.  Er I love to hate you?  I don&#8217;t know which one it is.  I guess it depends on the day or the topic.  Lately I find our common ground growing.  The other morning I was catching up on old podcasts (yes I&#8217;m horribly behind).  I ran into David Heinemeier Hansson&#8217;s <a href="http://itc.conversationsnetwork.org/shows/detail3987.html">Legacy Code talk </a>from Rails Conf Europe 2008.  It was excellent.  So much so, I&#8217;m recommending you take the time to listen to it.  If you are a programmer (Ruby or otherwise), take the hour and listen to this.  It will give you new perspective.  My favorite line <strong><em>&#8220;Legacy is just you over time&#8221;</em></strong>..<br />
