Theory Vs. Practice

Theory is when you know something, but it doesn't work. Practice is when something works, but you don't know why it works. Programmers combine theory and practice: Nothing works and they don't know why.

Technology managers

Technology is dominated by two types of people: Those who understand what they do not manage. Those who manage what they do not understand.

Upward compatibility

I've finally learned what "upward compatible" means. It means we get to keep all our old mistakes.

If one can do it...

Ideal version:
" If one can do it, You too can do it.
If None can do it, You must do it."

Actual Version:
"If one can do it, Let him do it.
If none can do it, Leave it."
