The Win-Win Command Line Paradox

The Win-Win Command Line Paradox

The ultimate programming paradox in command-line format! The first two lines reveal that doing absolutely nothing somehow results in victory—essentially the dream scenario for any efficiency-obsessed developer. Then the plot twist: actually putting in effort and "doing something" doesn't just maintain the win state, it amplifies it!

It's that beautiful contradiction where both laziness and effort are rewarded. Like when your hastily written script works flawlessly, but then you spend 3 hours optimizing it to save 0.02 seconds of runtime and feel even more accomplished. The universe rewards both the elegant minimalist and the obsessive optimizer equally!
