Intro |
The song is largely an excuse to use the title. (The original words really are from Ecclesiastes. :-) |
A Core for Ecclesiastes
To everything, turn, turn, turn,
There is a season, turn, turn, turn,
And a time for every process under heaven
A time to design, a time to write code,
A time to run tests, a time to debug,
A time to debug, a time to write docs,
A time to de-bug... forget this, just ship it.
For every hack, turn, turn, turn,
There was a reason, turn, turn, turn,
At the time that the comment wasn't written.
A time to run and a time to dump core
A time to freeze up, a time to reboot
A time to leak bytes, a time to seg fault
A time to deadlock
[stop abruptly]
