GitHub – Bookshelf Design, Part 1.5

And it has begun…

https://github.com/dnorum/cluster_analysis

Technically, as can be seen from the commit history, it began at the end of November last year. But with books piled knee-deep around pretty much the entire periphery of my first floor, it needs to begin to get serious.

It still needs a bit more refactoring and updating to go from being a personal project, i.e. a hideously messy set of ad-hoc scripts racing to stumble and flop across the finish line before they achieve a critical mass at which point any bug ‘fix’ introduces k>1 new bugs resulting in an event horizon from beyond which useful results can no longer escape, to a ‘real’ project with an actual useful README and notes and well-structured directories and all of that that you can be reasonably sure you can run without accidentally rm-rfing (remreffing? rm -fr and rimfiring, maybe?) yourself in the foot.

And then I need to actually finish it.

But it’s getting there.
