Great programmers are more than just code monkeys; according to Stanford programming legend Donald Knuth they are ”essayists who work with traditional aesthetic and literary forms.” The point: programming should be easily understood by real human beings ” not just computers.

And just like good writing and good grammar, when it comes to programming, the devil’s in the details. In fact, when it comes to my whole business, details are everything.
