What:

"And then I saw the analogy. What if DNA was C++, RNA was C and proteins was machine code? Yes, the hard and dirty work inside the cell was done by the protein code, representing the deep dark actions of the biochemistry, and of course, DNA was the C++. The analogy stretches even further when you think about compiler macros that are often embedded in C++ source files that depend on important information about the enviroment that the program is compiled in. This would make the compiler the ribosome."
