In #programming the most important things are:
1) to understand what you have as input
2) to know which type of result you want
Everything in the middle is just mundane code.

In other words: if you start with just rice and water, you can't expect to have a T-bone steak for dinner.

Like a broken egg cannot unbreak, no matter how many centuries you are going to stir it, if you input shit data to a computer system you will get shit output.

SHIT IN –> SHIT OUT

Any processing on shit is useless.

IT: «What result do you want from the program?»

Average customer: «Everything!»

93. When someone says "I want a programming language in which I need only say what I wish done," give him a lollipop.

@screwlisp @GustavinoBevilacqua @77nn the funny thing is that actually all programming languages work that way.
