Peace!

I agree with you Dieter. 30+ years ago, I used to spend hours
re-arranging overlays so that my compiled RPG program would fit within a
small memory footprint AND be efficient [1]. Today, who imagines such a
thing is necessary?

Today, we programmers understand that programmer productivity is very
important, and so we adopt habits; patterns and best practices which
help programmers be more efficient.

Now we need to teach this lesson to our managers.
