The right side of my brain helps me make things rhyme | |
The left side keeps it all in time | |
Whats in between helps me learn and perceive | |
But do I Believe, | |
I have the answers I need? | |
Ours is a culture with pride in logic and reason | |
But do the ones and zeros truly have meaning | |
Does your software have feelings? | |
Stay Tuned | |
This may be revealing | |
Work harder they said | |
We can rest once we're dead | |
What is the Opportunity cost | |
Of this lack of mental floss? | |
So many questions and no time for thought | |
Maybe you should sleep on it | |
Let rapid eye movements give way to improvement | |
Solutions reduced to abstract illusions | |
Fast asleep and hard at work | |
Generate painless solutions | |
So we've chosen our tools | |
We've lined our minds with patterns of design | |
Muscle memory translates brain waves to square braces | |
And a faint blue glow on our end users faces | |
Blue glows become blue screens | |
and sad macs bombs and disasters | |
Did we fail to think or fail to see | |
Or were we just told to work faster? | |
Five times we ask why things went awry? | |
Why? Because the computer does what you tell it to | |
Why? This solution doesn't follow the rules | |
Why? The analysis was done by fools | |
Why? We missed an opportunity for code re-use | |
Why? The user may have just been confused | |
Problem solving is a feedback loop | |
Think, Learn, Repeat | |
The right question IS the right answer | |
Take Time for contemplation | |
and you just might get there faster | |
Relax, Your brain is hard at work | |
Maintaining focus | |
A puzzle piece is placed precisely | |
With you unaware of its locus | |
But.. The joke is. | |
A computer walks in to a bar | |
Or crashed onto the surface of mars | |
Because you told it to | |
Think twice, code once | |
and you'll go far | |
