``The greatest abstraction is typing Firefox to execute a fully featured web browser, or typing gcc to execute a filly featured c compiler. That's thousands of function calls from a single command.''

No. I think the greatest abstraction is "thing".
It's an abstraction of everything that exists

10,000,000,000,000 cells running mostly the same program work together with 100,000,000,000,000 bacteria running different programs to create the great abstraction of a single body running a "human mind program" capable of deep inward and outward examinations of the universe and capable of cumming hard to videos where girls spray milk on each other with their buttholes

Also, every action. Because functions are things, too. (i.e. do thing())

I have. Is the fact that it's complete mean the man gcc output is no longer clean?
