The Problem with Design and Implementation
- Tichy 17y agoI blogged about the same thing recently, with far less words. Sadly, no upvotes on HN. http://blog.blinker.net/2009/08/31/the-architecture-analogy-for-programming-is-wrong/ http://blog.blinker.net/2009/08/31/the-architecture-analogy-...
- obecalp 17y agoShort summary: he thinks that every line of code is design because the final code is the precise spec. This is an interesting but narrow POV. What if you "design" an algorithm in Haskell and what to "translate" to another language? Calling the "translation" process design would be a bit of stretch. Implementation seems to be an appropriate word here.
