Samurai Jack

Samurai Jack was trapped in the future until he finished his karma.

Few know that Samurai Jack was an elite coder.

Samurai Jack was SO good, he once turned a O(n^4) problem into a O(1) problem. The answer was simply "yes".

Translation: Four parameters to a function are as many as you'll EVER need to ANY programming problem. With the possible exception of meta-programs, like writing a compiler, where the answer is five. UPDATE: hardware interface programs also count, where you should need

It is said that he was so good, he once transformed a whole OS and applications into a single ~200K executable, because "you didn't need to do all of that other stuff" and "everything can be distilled into its essence".

Translation: The nature of data is interconnected. All data, apart from pseudo-random numbers (or logical chaos), is related to the real world, so he defined a unified epistemological model and applied everything in the world to it. Three dimensions of visualization was all that it took.

Once he transformed a hardware fault into a simple software fix.

Translation:** Sometimes you can *simulate* reality to solve a problem.

When he was asked to create a data sharing system for the planet's exabytes of data, he turned in a program consisting of interconnected objects containing the same 4 functions. Those functions took only one piece of data.

Translation:** The world is still looking to understand how it works. *...but workses it does....*

That all I can get out for now about the myth and the legend. Seriously, we are wasting a lot of time in this world.
