Sadists

Explore

I was reading this article on Ten Reasons you’re a software developer (via Vikram) and saw this sentence in point number 4:

Software developers are artists, using crude tools to render images, text, and logic on electronic palettes that transcend aesthetic appeal.

It reminded me of an old messenger conversation with Avinash:

Me: We’re artists. Code is poetry (tagline stolen from WordPress). We create fascinating worlds where objects talk to each other and achieve magnificent things. The sad thing is that there is nobody to appreciate this other than ourselves. That’s when we turn sadists. Avinash: Avinash: awesome!
