> religion like behaviours
That phrasing makes me imagine a cultural anthropologist studying the behavior of programmers in the wild, their tool use, rituals, magical worldviews like object-orientation. There's that classic paper about how a language is a "tool for thinking", that it both expands and limits how and what a person can think. It makes sense that it shares characteristics with religion, a conceptual system of interfacing with the world.
