Restart Apache Every 10 Requests

I'm not a real programmer. I throw together things until it works then I move on. The real programmers will say Yeah it works but you're leaking memory everywhere. Perhaps we should fix that. I'll just restart Apache every 10 requests. — Rasmus Lerdorf —

A close-up photo of Rasmus Lerdorf appears beside a quote about an amateur programmer who makes things work by trial and error, ignores memory leaks, and restarts Apache every ten requests. The joke mocks pragmatic, hacky coding practices and contrasts them with professional programmers who would properly fix the underlying problem. It is commonly sent as a reaction to technical debt, lazy debugging, or code that only works through repeated restarts.
