Home renovations are like refactoring your code -- messy and full of occasional despair that you ever got started.

Thankfully, the end is in sight.

@monsieuricon I just got the estimate for asbestos. That's some pretty damn'd legacy code.

When I was managing renovation projects, one of the most helpful things to me was reading about software engineering

Renovation and code projects both tend to get stuck at the 90% completion level, for example
