        The true horror begins, when the customer calls for support, because some things are awkward, and you know instantly the cause, also that you will have to fix this now, 5 years later.

      I love that realization when I throw some hacky shit together and it somehow works first try.

      When I try to be organized and meticulous nothing works and I eventually give up.

    The difference between theory and praxis is that in theory, there is no difference, but in praxis, there is

    This is a good one, although theory is a much better problem to have than practice

    The difference between theory and practice is greater in practice than in theory.
