Indeed.
Then the 1000x engineer explains:
"You are confused because you do not understand Tao. Only a fool expects rational behavior from his fellow humans. Why do you expect it from a machine that humans have constructed? Computers simulate determinism; only Tao is perfect.
The rules of programming are transitory; only Tao is eternal. Therefore, you must contemplate Tao before you receive Enlightenment."
"But how will I know when I have received Enlightenment?" asks the 100x engineer.
"Your program will run correctly," replies the 1000x engineer.
