Hari-Kuyō, the Festival of Broken Needles, is celebrated by women in Japan as a memorial to all the sewing needles broken in their service in the past year. I think we should also celebrate Sofuto-Kuyō in memory of the lines of code we rewrote, the classes we refactored, and the packages we replaced with newer versions. They too served; it may only have been for a while, but that is all any of us can hope for.
