Write only programming

I try not to do that anymore. And I generally didn't code straight out my head on to the IMSAI or PPU switches. I'd usually write it on paper. I did get to where I knew most of the major 8080 opcodes off the top of my head, and many of the PPU opcodes, but except for the rote memorization of the loader programs (which I don't consider programming, per se. I think of programming as the art/science of designing an algorith/process to do something), I didn't enter stuff off the top of my head. Or at least, very few exceptions. Same for calculators. As to whoever brough up BrainFuck and Befunge, that's not a real programming language for real applications. That's what I call a synthetic language, whose sole purpose was to write a language to accomplish those goals. Granted, you can program in them, and granted they don't have comments, but they're not what I consider "real" or "serious" programming languages. And if anyone writes code for my company that doesn't document/comment it, no programming genius is worth the trouble. S/he gets hit by a truck, I'm out of business. I'll take 3 "ordinairy" programmers over one self-centered egotistical non-comment-writing "super-star" anyday. The super-stars aren't worth their trouble, long term. [snip]
