from developers who are being paid to write code
Who is paid to write code? I'm paid to ensure my team delivers quality software, on time and to spec. Typing out code is the least difficult part of that.
- pliftkl 6y agoI'm always amazed at people who think that programming languages and typing and editing are the hard part of what software engineers do. I spend much more time trying to understand the problem that I'm trying to solve, and to make decisions about how to do that in a way that I won't regret.
- yetihehe 6y agoI'm paid to write (valid, working) code. If I sit all month just thinking but no effects, I will be fired. Of course, thinking about what code to write is a big part, I've spent twoo weeks once not writing code and the result was changing one number from 4096 to 8192, which made one shitty iot device a little more stable, which was seen as a big success. So, I wrote 4 bytes/2weeks, most of it was thinking and finding what to change, but essentially it WAS writing code.
