A stitch in time

At work last week my boss was about to purchase a piece of software for a substantial sum. When he told me about it, I almost laughed at the ludicrous price. “They said it took about $6,000 worth of labor,” he said. Completely outrageous. So I coded up a program in Ruby that does pretty much the same thing (all the parts that matter to us) in just a handful of hours. I hate overpriced software.

Throw in your two cents
