Functional programming
I am an architect. Wanting to stay attached to my beautyful constructions I was working on, I made subtle mistakes in the math, like underestimating wind's power over a bridge so they could pass the goverment revisions. I was expecting small breaches, but there were a chain reaction and the bridge collapsed killing lots of people. A jouglar created "London bridge is falling down, falling down..." in my honor, so I had to escape.
Then I worked as electrician. Knowing that with high temps you have to replace switches more often, I put half section cable in a building. You bet: "Fire in the tower". A former architect mate did the same savings on the escape routes so lots of people burned to death. There was a movie about the incident too and I had to escape.
Then I found a job as a plumber. Small jobs small houses and no killings, it was ok. Just some careful negligent work and the housekeepers keep calling you to fix the same job over and over. Problem: Competition. A guy spreading a word of my lousy job. Lousy? What a lie, there is nothing loose in my art. I started loosing jobs so I had to kill him. Then escape, just in case.
Today I work as a programmer. They dont blame you if you make bugs, they expect them and pay you more. You get paid for making bugs then pay you for fixing them, when you fix enough your code go into production then the fixes are more valuable. Being a careful bug designer and fixer I got instantly famous as the "problem solver" and my incomes reached levels never seen before. I even put a succesful channel on youtube just for fun. Hidding the "bug on purpose" part of course. I am a success. People admire me. I recently won a contract for doing the java part for their new robotic tele-surgeons. What can go wrong.
I spread my art. Better yet, there wasn't a killing since the last century wich is fine. I've never been so happy.
Wait. Unbreakeable apps? Mmm...
