So I'm going to rewrite it from scratch.

Just continue poking @pembo if you find bugs on the current site. This will take a while to finish.

I wish I could have gotten approval to rewrite our shit show of a code base at work from scratch (at least the two libraries I work in daily). Everything we try to do is blocked by the god awful architecture, but they hired some guy around the VP level who had a bad experience rewriting something from scratch, so that's why we were forced to try and in-place fix it over the years, but we can't even do that because we spend all of our time firefighting bugs in the fucked code we inherited.

We would have a good product now if we continued what we were doing 3 years ago, but nooo, now we're just literally years behind the competition.

End rant.

Don't be like me. I never finish things.

When I'm halfway finished I decide that the current code is an utter mess and start again from scratch ;P
