I've repurposed the same code for a few different projects such as a job search (e.g. I got the second job I applied for when I told them abut it)
I am thinking about getting it out of mothballs and making it reusable and more sustainable and also adding some kind of clustering engine. What I can't stand right now is the headline "Astronomers discover the closest black hole" from the Earth that has been heavily me-tooed for the last month to the point where I'm wondering if (1) the astronomers discovered another one or (2) if some people only read the news once a month.
