Programmer here. Can confirm. Coding is just a list of instructions we send to the tiny people inside so they know what to do.
Electrical Engineer here. Electrons are people too! Very tiny, quantum people, with very tiny, quantum hopes, and very tiny, quantum dreams!
Science cannot disprove this.
I hear electrons are really flaky. You tell them to show up at a specific place and time, and you just never know. Always getting involved in one entanglement or another.
It's frustrating because they're so literal when following instructions. I wish they'd do what I want, not what I said.
The trick is to say what you mean ☝🤓
That really isn't a bad metaphor for how the computer processes code.
They don't always listen, though.
That's why I'm constantly shoving cookies into the case. So the computer gnomes are happy.
