    Also, an easy way to know what you are getting into when you come to help on a project is plug the source code into something like Enterprise Architect and see a graphical representation of the classes, along with the relations.

    I don't use such tools extensively but the graphical snapshot is amazing if only for that.

    Nice post! Most of my utility classes are stateless and contain only static methods. A lot of common logic is in there instead of being in the instantiated class. Inheritance here and there were it makes sense.

    Yet, I still see OO heads around who think; the more it inherits, the more it is OO. The ultimate case is those projects where all classes inherit from an often called "RootObject" that contains all utility methods for the project hence effectively making all utility methods global methods.

    This seems to open the door to a more Robocop like type of robot.

  10. I had a crazy driller once. Instead of using 2 tongs to break the joint between pipes while pulling out, he'd only use one combined with the torque of the rotary table.

    God, we broke all records with regards to efficiently pulling out.

    The iron ruffnecks are almost an order of magnitude less efficient in term of speed.

    Anyway, sure it makes workers safer and I have nothing against it.

    We sure had to keep our heads down and hope for the best when the backup cable tied to the A-leg was handling all the load of breaking the joint.

    I am just saying; that was the old days...

  11. Sadly, less and less ruffnecks (actually, the motorman would be doing it) know how to spin the chain because of those so call "ironruffnecks".

    It's also an incredibly insecure protocol unless you use a SSH tunnel. Most people don't seem to bother with tunneling rsync via SSH either.

    No need for an shh tunnel (e.g. ssh -L:port:target:port)

    Just tell rsync to use ssh like this:
    RSYNC_RSH='ssh -x -l root '
    export RSYNC_RSH

    then

    rsync -a host:/targetdir .

    about mangling the data: you obviously must be doing something wrong. I never had such problems...
