Love it. The same strategy was used by a colleague with a struggling team member. For that case, it was: show me a diagram. For nearly every question. The struggling dev just wanted to solve the issue so much, they were not stopping to understand the issue. Slow down to go faster.
- plumsempy 6y ago> Slow down to go faster yes! I had a similar problem with bigger projects. I used to start coding too early before understanding the problem completely. I have decided to write an essay since, about everything I am about to do. This slows me down and makes me look at every detail that might be crucial in the project execution. These docs then become some sort of a data lake about the process of building this project, from which later I can derive documentation or slides for presentations from or send people there when they ask me why I did something the way I did.
