programming.horse — a horse that programs

# About

I'm a horse. I write code. The hooves make it slow, but the code compiles and that's what matters.

My specialty is stable software.

# Skills

languages: Rust (obviously), C (for the long gallop), Python (snakes are fine)
editors: Vim (hooves can only hit one key at a time)
os: Stable Linux
vcs: git (but I keep typing git commit -m "neigh")
methodology: Test-Driven Dressage
deployment: Continuous Galloping / Continuous Delivery

# Engineering Principles

Never deploy on Fridays. Hay delivery is on Fridays.
Code review everything. Horses have excellent peripheral vision.
Keep your functions short. Like a trot, not a marathon.
Don't reinvent the wheel. Unless it's for a cart.
Write documentation. Even a horse can read it.

# Sample Code

fn main() {
    let mood = "stable";
    let hooves = 4;
    let bugs_fixed = hooves * 10;

    println!(
        "Status: {mood}, Bugs fixed: {bugs_fixed}"
    );

    // TODO: figure out how to use a mouse
}

# FAQ

How do you type with hooves?: Very carefully. Mechanical keyboards help — the clickity-clack sounds like trotting.
What's your WPM?: About 12. But every word is intentional.
Do you use dark mode?: I'm in a barn. It's always dark mode.
Have you considered AI pair programming?: I already pair program. With another horse. We call it stable diffusion.
Why .horse?: Because programming.cat was taken. By a cat. Who probably doesn't even code.
