Alternatively, a programmer can see the seeming complexity that emerges from many, many permutations of seemingly simple operations and extrapolate that over millions of generations to consider how, perhaps, we're all just the result of simple compounds joining and rejoining in a trillion different ways.

I cannot upvote this enough. If anything, programming reinforces the idea in my mind that complexity arises, emerges, from the infinite combinations of atoms of simplicity.
