Some axioms to remember, my friend:

Albert Einstein: "Only two things are infinite, the universe and
human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."

Rich Cook: "Programming today is a race between software engineers
striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the
Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the
Universe is winning."
