well, the Oracle of Delphi (who promotes pascal & ADA)
had said that things like *printf*
MUST be avoided
like a deadly sin which can cause
bad things like when
it rains cats and dogs and even outside the Matrix
they all know (including the Architect and his henchmen) that
it's actually raining a ton of
code-bugs due to lazy humans
therefore, every attempt to re-implement
those bad things must be banned and punished
and all of those dissidents and rebels
reduced in bondage and obliged to the hammer & stones
to build pyramids with spiral stairs and elliptical temples
in the name of goddess ADA
had said the wise -
don't make the Oracle so angry -
but we still staid in those things because we still had H.O.P.E.
(was it
Hold On, Pain Ends!, ain't it? ... even under the whip?)
(kidding, it's my humor
