True, but it's of prime importance to even be considered "good code". So called "good code" that doesn't work, doesn't matter.
Decrease the belief in God, and you increase the numbers of those who wish to play at being God by being “society’s supervisors,” who deny the existence of divine standards, but are very serious about imposing their own standards on society.-Neal A. Maxwell

Agreed, code that doesn't work is not good code, no matter how good it looks and how well organized it is.

If there's anything called Thanks-taking, I'm on that side

I never really gave it much thought, but I suppose the other side should actually be called "You're welcome-taking".

That's news from 2010. I've never heard anyone about Thanksgiving and I live in the Netherlands.
Don't believe everything you read on the internet 
Although I wouldn't be surprised if it became a celebration here too.
People have been celebrating Halloween for the last couple of years too.
And even St. Patrick's Day is celebrated in the cities... 
People like parties and Halloween, St. Patrick's Day and Thanksgiving are just (really very lame) excuses to partAAAY!!!

There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

You must be a city boy then if you've never heard of an 'Oogstdankfeest'. Granted they've become less and less. But when I was a kid we had a 3 day celebration in our city town village. Oh heck, it was just a couple of streets in the middle of nowhere.

Where did that Mayflower sail to? The Netherlands? 
The party is modelled to a party in Leiden, making it special for that specific city.
--edit
Assumed that the topic would be about dinner. Kinda dissapointing.

I had a pair of those but they were too tight. Made my feet comfortably numb.

One of these days, I too will buy a pair.

I agree, sometimes it seems as though there's no time to breathe.
