architect is a higher level, they tell us why our designs are bad
- slumdev 5y agoLOL. I feel for you. It's the same way in a lot of places. Your seniors should definitely be thought leaders, but when they get "too senior" or "too important" to write code, the company is done innovating. That's a major organizational smell.
- grillvogel 5y agowhy is that? isnt the main innovation done in design? anyone can code something up that has been designed for them already
- slumdev 5y agoIf your design is so detailed that any code monkey can implement it without screwing it up, then you've probably spent more time writing design documents than you would have spent just building it. And if your code isn't expressive enough that the design can be extracted without major effort, then the two will inevitably diverge at some point. Many bugs will appear.
