Every day, one and only one programming quote is posted by the bot.

The core idea behind restricting posting is to encourage discussion. One quote a day is hopefully a good way to do that.

This is funny. @[email protected] , could this bot include any citations? I was just curious about the source or context, as I'd guess it would have stirred up a debate. My guess is that this may have been a tweet or blog except, but it'd been fun to have a link to the direct source. Not sure that's available from the DB source these quotes are being pulled from.

Most of the sources of different things past just the person that said it would be difficult to track down. This one when looking for one brings me to the old fog creek forums but its difficult to find things in that. The quotes here are pulled from user submissions from the form in the sidebar rather than a premade database of them
