Creating Your First Gem
What?
Does One Thing Well
Why?
Programming is hard.
Programming well is really hard.
The Problem
Naming
The First Rule
Name It Something Clever
The Second Rule
Don’t Take One Of My Names
None
615.555.1234
None
The Third Rule
Don’t Be Inappropriate
Don't name it something sexual.
Don't name it something misogynistic
Don't name it after crude words for your anatomy
F&%#
None
Why Listen To Me?
