Excellent post. Short and to the point, could not have said it better myself.

Nice new page! I particularly like the banner.

I see your point there. If you have standard API calls or included JAR files that is fine.

I think the point is “Know exactly what your code does and then prove it using unit tests”.

i disagree with “Copy the code”, should i make name-surname.jar and put it in every project im part of?

copy code is only used when API sucks, like in Java reading/writing from/to a file. im not into writing that code by hand.
