Hi Jason

I filed an application to forrst a couple of months ago but don't know what my application id is and have no idea to find it. Is it acceptable to file a second "request for invite"? My website is silvermapleweb.com and I built it completely myself. It's WordPress with a custom child theme based on toolbox.

Thanks/peter

Good article, thanks! One minor bug:

> ‘y5k’ will yank (copy) 5 lines down.

For an "up" value of "down", sure :)

I remember reading that post. It's excellent, and says what I say more eloquently.

Another excellent place to get a sense of the vi language is Your problem with Vim is that you don't grok vi (an answer on Stack Overflow).

This is of course just the first step. You could add methods specifically for each of the checks. This article, however, was merely focusing on using comments as an indicator. Other indicators I will talk about are conditionals and loops. The contents of an if or loop block is an indication of moving something into it's own method.

The idea is simple: when you do this, it should raise a flag.

As you mention, we should question every line of code we write. This hopefully helps to provide solutions to these questions.

I like the idea of questioning your code every time you feel the need to add a comment. I think we should question every line of code we write, but comments are often a great indicator of problems.

What do you think about going even further in the refactoring? I think I would add two more methods. Something like matchEmailFormat() and matchUsernameFormat(). It would make it easier to reuse, modify and read. If someone really needs to know how you check for it, he can go in the one line methods.

Hi there!
I also applied for a Forrst invite a while ago but failed in getting any votes. I think that my feedback was quite detailed and to the point, but I may be wrong.

My application link is: http://forrst.com/i/5l7

Cheers!

Here is the link: http://forrst.com/i/52l. I am only starting out with HTML and CSS, but I really enjoy it and am very passionate about it. Forrst seems like such a great learning community!
