You can definitely make something functional without knowing how it works. But it will only work until it doesn't, then you won't be able to debug it. Coding javascript for example is removed enough from the internal working of the processor that a lot of details don't matter. But should you need to send a binary data packet somewhere through a websocket...
- smcn 4y agoDon't get me wrong, I agree. I just see a lot of people bypass the basics. I think that this kind of thing will become too low level for most developers and it'll become speciality knowledge. I'd say that most developers I've met have been content to sit and plug one package into another, without too much care about how they work.
