Date: 2025-03-10 Spartan programs for heroes Why bare bones simple programs are your best friends? Spartan programs, very simple, human readable code for the core tasks have several advantages and several unmatched life-changing elements compared to regular junk around computers. Obvious advantages are that you may easier to understand and change the code. Another point is, as the code is minimal, it also does very little, so less things can break during a process. It is more predictable and adjustable for changing environment. There are probably still many people who will not even agree on this. Some are just totaly out of reality, bind into their corporate sick thoughts. Then there are some aspects of minimal and readable small code, which may be not so obvious. Spartan programs are more in line with life, so with humans. Those tiny personal pieces of code don't bring comfort malaria into your life. If you want something to do, you have to do some work, your minimal program will not bring you to the heavean itself. You have to drive it. It will not process tens or hundreds of tasks behind the scene so you are safe, secure and can eat popcorn. Do you want to send an email? Do it. Other server rejected you? Find out why and send your message again with fixes. Did you make a mistake? You pay for it. Learn and do it better again. You learn a lot about computing, tools, protocols and systems you work with. Learning, getting experience, using your intelligence you just become true living human. Like when you are in a jungle, wandering around with all your protective cloths, tools, knife and whatever, you still can fall down on a rock and break your leg. You may start to scream around for help, but you will not get the confirmation from the server. You don't get reply message over the wood "We got your help call, we are coming". No way. You send your voice over the air and maybe pray ;/ Somebody may hear you or not. It's not up to you. Answers and results are job of Life itself, not yours. You become a hero, true human, who is responsible for his life, an adult who does himself what he can. You don't need a curator, nurse who will carry you over life, even the online one. Be true hero, throw out all garbage from your machinery. Keep just God's particles inside. Your life will be joy. True power lies in simplicity. Focus on what matters, strip away the rest. The less you need, the more you achieve.
