Prose and Code

Where algorithms meet verses

The Blockchain

Distributed ledger, trust in math, Consensus on a cryptographic path. Blocks chained together, immutable state, Decentralized networks, sealed by fate. Proof of work, or proof of stake, Mining blocks, fortunes to make. Smart contracts execute with precision, In trustless systems, our vision. Whether bubble or revolution true, Blockchain philosophy breaks through.

The Legacy Code

Ancient code from years gone by, No documentation, we wonder why. Comments sparse, logic obscure, Spaghetti code we must endure. Who wrote this? No one knows, Technical debt forever grows. To refactor or leave alone? The eternal developer's moan. Yet in this chaos, systems run, Legacy code, never done.

The Algorithm

O(n log n), the sweet spot found, Where efficiency is sound. Time complexity, space to spare, Big O notation everywhere. Bubble sort, so slow and meek, Quick sort, the speed we seek. Hash tables with constant time, Algorithmic paradigm. In every problem, patterns hide, Let algorithms be your guide.

The Digital Dream

In circuits of silicon, thoughts take flight, Binary whispers in the deep of night. Code cascades like rivers through the mind, Each function a verse, perfectly designed. Variables dance in loops so grand, While arrays march across the land. In every bug, a lesson hides, In every fix, the poet's pride. For those who write in languages divine, Know that prose and code align.

SQL Query

SELECT * FROM dreams WHERE hope = true, JOIN with reality, a filtered view. GROUP BY moments, ORDER BY time, HAVING COUNT of memories sublime. LEFT JOIN sorrows, RIGHT JOIN joys, INNER workings like database toys. WHERE clauses filter life's great test, And indexes make queries blessed. In tables of existence, rows align, Relational beauty, by design.
