thehowe_v7.1

Today at work I was putting together a presentation for a talk I'm giving tomorrow on the project I've been working on for the first half of my internship. Put simply, I added some functionality and a new user interface to an existing application.

Of course, that's not how my twisted brain thought about it. I started envisioning the code as the torso of a person, and the original interface as the head. In this analogy, my extensions would be like a cancerous mutant second head sprouting from the shoulder, with its tendrils extending down into the torso. It'd be all twisted and weird, and it'd always be drooling and chewing on the main head's hair. It'd have like five teeth and one eye would be bigger than the other.

I was this close to using the analogy.
