Tired of modern transportation? Have a ton of hay laying around? It sounds like you might very well be in the market for a horse. But why not build one yourself through the magic of programming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

This comic was developed by the Toggl Goon Squad. When not horsing around and making fun of technologies they do not like (or don\u2019t know how to use), they are busy building\u00a0Toggl Track<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a developer, do check it out \u2013 chances are you\u2019ll need a time tracker at some point in your career.<\/p>\n

But why would you want to build a horse?<\/h2>\n

We\u2019ve already created the world\u2019s greatest time tracking software<\/a>, so we figured \u2013 why not take on a new challenge? It really works best if you don\u2019t think about it too much, like a new Star\u00a0Trek movie or fruit bottom yoghurt. It\u2019s best to enjoy it for what it is.<\/p>\n

Done. What else have you got?<\/h2>\n

So glad you asked.<\/p>\n

We theorized what might happen if programmers created the earth<\/a> (spoiler alert: it\u2019s not great).<\/p>\n

If you have a job where you need to deal with clients a lot, check out our guide to the\u00a0absolute worst clients explained with pirates.<\/p>\n

Or maybe you have to deal with clients who think that exposure is a fair method of payment. In that case, you might want to take the email generator<\/a> for a spin.<\/p>\n

If you find yourself in situations where you need to explain your job to the common folk, you can use\u00a0our guide that explains different software development strategies<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 with cars.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve done a whole lot of other comics & fun things too. If you want to check those out, you can click right on the fun button at the top of this page.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
