The Tao of Programming
(www.mit.edu)
30 years of programming and architecture consulting for corporations and this is the most accurate take on it.
An old classic now on kbin.social.
Several Masters each gave lessons invoking the Tao, but each did not see the whole of the Tao. If all the Masters were able to combine their knowledge, would they then see the whole Tao?
One would see it as a wall, one would see it as a tree trunk, one would see it as a snake, one would see it as a rope, one would see it as a spear.

And what of their friend in the other room?
Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
