Code Now, Cry Later

Content UHetBesteNaam A man in a hot air balloon realized he was lost. He reduced altitude and spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more and shouted, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am.' The woman below replied, "You are in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You are between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude." "You must be a programmer," said the balloonist. 'I am" replied the woman, "How did you know?" "Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technicallv correct. but I have no idea what to make of vour information, and the fact is I am still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help so far." The woman below responded, "You must be a manager." "I am," replied the balloonist, "but how did you know?" "Well," said the woman, "You don't know where you are or where you are going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise which you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow "it's my fault."

Ah yes, the classic "my 1000-line C++ monstrosity is faster than your 10-line Python script" flex. Your C++ friend is standing there like a caveman who just discovered fire, proudly waving around their manually managed memory and pointer arithmetic while you're over there with Python like Dexter from Dexter's Laboratory, solving the same problem with elegant simplicity. Sure, their code runs 100x faster... after they spent 100x longer debugging segmentation faults and memory leaks. Meanwhile, you wrote your solution during your coffee break and went back to having an actual life. The real speed was the development time we saved along the way.
