I complain about quality a lot. I might almost have this superhuman level of discipline on my best days, and only then if business allows me to indulge it. But think about the worst programmer you've ever worked with. In his hands the tool is a much bigger win.
- mrleinad 9y agoA tool is short term, shallow, and goal-oriented. Building discipline and good practices permeates a person's life far more deeply than tools.
- Illotus 9y agoBanking on discipline in any human endeavour seems to be fool's errand. You will get more reliable results by improving the environment, systems and tools. This can be seen in how much checklists have improved the quality and reliability in fields like medicine. We are in a field where we can literally codify the checklists to enforce them.
