Programmer Quotes, and Comments Update Sept. 2026

Stan Switaj

When software development goes your way, I really like software.

Software should work as intended, as conceptualized and engineered; program with quality intent.

I think with most if not all software development, we stand on the shoulders of giants of programmers.

I want to tell you a story, when I was in high school, I always thought what would a top programmer be like? Do they write their own software that they use themselves, what the I think was the most prevailing thought at that time. They could also hack any software, first with disassembly, such as with hexedit (software back in the day) and of software with tools like the days of yonder softice, and so forth, with the utmost ease or perhaps as a challenge similar to a "puzzle" that people often do for time consumption and to ease boredom, though I don't hack, and anything remotely resembling hacking that I perhaps have done is white-hacking of my own software for any potential flaws so I have an idea of what happens in that area.

Today, I do write software that I use myself, a list can be found at the LinuxDoors.com linux distribution that I actively support even up to today (Sept. 2026) with all the intention in the world to continue and provide quality software for (others) you, the Internet user.
