Today at work I was digging through another issue thread (this one maybe?) for a Drupal module and realized: code is great cuz it does all kinds of things for us, way faster than we can manually, and usually hides all the details so that things just work magically on the surface. But the funny part is, people write code. We are still smarter than programs, so we have to conceptualize the logic, and then hand over the execution of the process. We screw up sometimes, or don't think of things, and then one error could end up creating all sorts of odds-and-ends issues that have no apparent relation to it, at first...
But I still love figuring out how to make code do what I want.
