"As security is as good as the weakest link in the chain, code is only as good as the least readable, maintanable, secure and explainable part of it."Noted in the book Mercurial: The Definitive Guide as one of many who commented on the specific paragraphs and examples. (http://hgbook.red-bean.com/)Specialties: Implementing development methods and patterns from one programming language into another, implementing creative solutions for difficult problems.I mainly do PHP website and webapplication development.For this I work with only one end goal during development:"I must be able to explain every aspect of the choices made in the code during and after development and be able to stand by those choices."This goal I deliver using the following targets:- A stable working end product- Future-proof code- Built-in security measurements- Protection of the end user's privacy.Good customer relations and feedback is vital in reaching this goal.
