Ah, old memories... I remember reading this years ago. And recently while naming my blog too as 'The Tao of Programming' by myself, I thought it sounded vaguely familiar (but oddly, didn't think of Googling for it). But reading this now, I realize this is more like a set of Zen koans than like Tao Te Ching itself. A little 'poetry' here and there like Tao Te Ching, but most parts are obviously inspired from koans.
