Love this blog, Luke - it's really a stunning news site. The Aesthetics in Code post is something dear to my bosom. I think developers tend to be very vain about their code .. If you ever meet a programmer in Armani then hire them because their code will likely be immaculate too.
Terms like elegance are used liberally .. it's a very traditional notion of aesthetics that programmers have when talking about code. When people hear elegance and beauty as being talked about as the markers of aesthetics how does that sound? What do the other programmers think about aesthetics in code when you introduce the notion to the philosophy of art?
