An actual quote from a kid in my English Class:

"Because I'm a programmer, everything I make has to be perfect, cause that's what it's like when you work with code".

    Give him a few years and he will realize that perfection actually means "works, good enough for me".

    Production kills perfection.

    Hehe, reality could upset him. We all think our code is perfect until you send the PR for code review hehe. Sooometimes

    Sounds like an old professor of mine "in order to write good code, write good code the first time". Just be fuckjng perfect, right?

    I'm sure NASA would love to hire this kid, seeing as even they have bugs.

    Wow, programmers must have the cushy jobs.* As a DevOps Engineer, my job is like changing the tires on a car that is currently traveling 100 mph. The car is also on fire and only has 3.5 wheels anyway.

    * This was sarcasm, I know from experience that developers deal with as much crap as DevOps Engineers do. Don't yell at me.
