Slightly off-topic but a favourite Ken Thomson talk/paper of mine that
is very relevant to the discussion of "trust" in software systems:

If you're a programmer and you've never written your own quine I'd
suggest giving it a crack before reading the source code. It's much
more fun to figure out on your own.
