I started reading the code Martin wrote with his son for the “FitNesse” acceptance tracking framework.

The code was simply God awful. Nearly every method was tagged ad “throws Exception”, no comments, and the famous endless sea of classes with only a few lines of code per method.

The code itself ran with constant exceptions filling up the logs. This was going back over a decade or more when I looked at it.

You can see his lineage of trying to sell consulting services and books all the way back to the comp.object Usenet groups back in the 90s.

Sadly he still commands big fees to speak at various conferences and companies, I was very disappointed when he spoke at Bloomberg many years ago when I worked there.
