Joel's Mundane Life

Only a short post but one I felt of note since I come across developers and media designers who still don't employ code version control, wipe out each others' changes, and lose days of work regularly. Worse still they don't understand the paradigm, or throw a perfectly good svn/cvs regime away because they can't be arsed.

So, head over to Smashing Magazine's round-up on Subversion and learn to do code control properly - trust me, it'll save your ass when you have more than one developer or when you make cock-ups you only discover months later.
