I got a tool to help me with the tedious parts of programming. It's called a CAT (Cat Aided Typing) device.
It runs out of power quickly though. Recharging can take up to 10 hours!

You too, huh? The funny thing is, the stuff my cat types looks like Perl without me even having to teach him.

That is funny, isn't it? Sometimes I suspect Larry had cats design Perl for him :-)
Our other cat otoh seems more interested in illiterate programming...

It never ceases to amaze me how cats can be ashtonishingly intelligent one moment, and utterly stupid the next.

It's a very easy learning curve from purr programming. purr (pet me), purr (feed me), purr (open this door, I want to be on the other side of it for a few seconds), ... [very definitely an imperative style of programming languae]

<one-liner>Is that related to Squeak?</one-liner>

Squeak might have roared once, but I found its half eaten remains on my doorstep this morning. Again.
