My final draft is often completely different to my first draft, which I wouldn’t want to ship.
Most of the time I only start to see the real shape of the solution after a few days of work.
Those iterations each day have value as they propel me toward a solution. But it’s more of an internal type of shipping. I’m shipping to myself.
- Tade0 2y agoSame here. Every damn time it's only my third idea that is sufficiently correct and maintainable. Unfortunately that means I need to sit and wait before it comes to me. I could go the analytical road and write down all the requirements, edge cases and just tick them off one bu one but that's throughly exhausting. At work more often than not I settle on the second iteration, but that is still slow by some people's standards and incurs tech debt.
