I must write code very differently than most writing the actual code is not what takes my time. Sure you feel that time, but it ends up being a pretty small percentage of mine.

Sure it may slow down development but it encodes useful information for reading and understanding the code later on, and preventing the most pernicious sorts of bugs (data races, UB, memory unsafety) from creeping in in the first place - and thus less need to spend time doing non-development tasks later.
- rileymat2 2y agoYes, I am agreeing. I am saying, a lot of these affordances that enter code faster or terser are not where I spend my time. I spend my time on the things you are talking about.
