I don't think a good programmer is a fast programmer. Good programmers can solve problems and move beyond obstacles. Mediocre (or bad) programmers can do some basic things but quickly hit walls and don't know how to proceed. Building quality software takes time. There's no way around it. > At the moment I feel like I have no choice but to go at the pace that my mind allows me to operate at. That will always be the case. The only way to be "faster" is if you have more knowledge about the domain you're working with and the technologies you are using.
