Maybe you should educate them on how to be a professional rather than an amateur.
Professionals understand that code is part of a process and not the sole point of development.
Of course other parts of the process are architecture, design, implementation, testing and maintenance. Not to mention the cost of all of those.
Of those steps the part that "reduces" code is only one part. Unless it does, objectively, reduce the cost overall then it isn't in fact professional. At a minimum it must be easier to maintain (thus understand) for the average programmer that works at the company. If it doesn't then it isn't cost effective and therefor it fails.

I like typing (slow typing) in C-derived language, it let me think! Programming is all about thinking. At the end of the day, this in incredibly productive.

All it does, IMHO, is obfuscate things. There's really no added value, as far as I can see. I see this all the time in Rails code. It's a PITA, because you have to learn all these one-off poorly named "rewrites" of the original code intentions.

The photo has been edited, I suspect. I would like to direct your attention to the big numbers toward the bottom. The image noise is clearly evident with the naked/nude/undressed eye.

I think that's JPG-artifacts. I see the same noise around every other text too. Not saying this proves the photo to be legit.

I think it is legit, was confirmed by the OP.
Did I just try to convince someone on the Internet that the Internet is not wrong ?

I come home from work, make dinner and read OG's thought of the day.
That's my usual routine, but something feels off today...
|
|
|
|

Perhaps OG was thoughtless today, missed the wifes birthday, and is now recovering from the wounds?

I cannot forget Herself's birthday: January 1st is easy to remember (if difficult to buy a present for)

Just say "Happy birthday dear, I got you a whole new year just for you! " every year.
When she objects tell her no new years will come if you stop giving them to her. See if she's willing to take the risk...
