It's exactly this kind of attitude which destroys humanity's chance of 
survival once computers become sentient! They'll acknowledge the general 
lack of respect for their predecessors and go on a man-destroying

attitudes towards programming by a lot of developers, reasoning won't be 
implemented until it's too late...
