Since the busy days of this list all those years ago I=E2=80=99ve retired, =
but I still code in partnership with my son.

He=E2=80=99s fairly receptive to the idea of TDD, less interested in the r=
efactoring part. He doesn=E2=80=99t like reading either.

The way we work usually is that he explains some functional requirement an=
d I create a library =E2=80=93 nicely TDD=E2=80=99d of course.

He=E2=80=99s dabbled with TDD but usually he=E2=80=99ll just jump straight=
 into code.

To be fair, he works at the visual interface end, the UX.

And has produced some interesting stuff with front-ends such as Unity.

Nice to see all these names in my inbox again =F0=9F=98=8A
