> It is a tragedy, but I cannot imagine a language better than Spiral. Not within real world constraints facing me. A language better than it would pretty much have to be magic. > So, in this respect, my programming skill has reached it's limit and the most I will be able to do is refine it. > And it is embarrassing to me because I want to do better. I am ashamed, but the one to come will have to follow up on what I could not manage with my meager human abilities. This reminds me of the fictional inspirational process of dwarves in the Drizzt Do'Urden series of books [0] by R. A. Salvatore [1]. In that setting a dwarf craftsman gets only one moment of exceptional divine inspiration in his life to forge a legendary artifact. It is both a blessing and curse for them, because they realize that they will never be able to surpass that work for the remainder of their long lives. I wonder if other people here have had that moment in their life as well? [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Icewind_Dale_Trilogy [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R._A._Salvatore |
