Codes For Life

74 Comments »

At both my day job and my freelance gig I've come across an interesting revelation lately. There is a code for everything. And I mean everything. From the obscure to the obvious I see humans have already thought to apply some kind of organization to it.

A few searches on various RFC standards at Wikipedia will show you the light.

My most useful discovery has been FIPS state and county codes. Who knew that counties had a system in place? I guess it's obvious when I think about it. Leave it to the department of agriculture to provide.
