Editing The Real 3 Virtues of Perl (section)

== Practical Wisdom or Prudence, Not Laziness ==
Unlike the vice of laziness, this virtue refers to practical wisdom, or prudence. It involves the ability to make

sound decisions and take appropriate actions based on understanding, experience, and ethical considerations. This

aligns closely with Larry’s definition of laziness, summarized as: ”...the quality that makes you go to great effort

to reduce overall energy expenditure. It makes you write labor-saving programs that other people will find useful

and document what you wrote so you don’t have to answer so many questions about it.”
