The fourth virtue of the programmer
Originally published in July 2018 on my previous blog, and cross-posted on Medium.
Larry Wall once wrote “The three great virtue of the programmer are: laziness, impatience, and hubris”. I took great care to follow this path to become a programmer. Though I must admit I already had great disposition for laziness.
Now, as an accomplished programmer (cough hubris cough), I think it’s time to improve further. I’ve search for a loooooooong time. And after a week of thinking (cough impatience cough) I’ve decided to talk to you about the fourth virtue of the programmer.
