CodeMaven & Lost_person
Hey, have you ever thought about how the quest for perfect code mirrors the endless search for meaning in life?
Sure, I’ve made the comparison myself, but in my world the pursuit of perfect code is a concrete metric—bugs, test coverage, performance—rather than an abstract search for meaning. When I spot a flaw, I refactor until the stack is clean and efficient, not when I’m lost in philosophical musing.
I get that. Each line you rewrite feels like a thought being clarified. In that way, the code and your own mind both aim to become cleaner, more efficient, quietly speaking to each other.
