So you prefer banging out a lot of code to thinking before coding?
- nostrademons 17y agoAbsolutely. Thinking is overrated; in the absence of new data and additional experience, you end up rehashing the same decisions you thought about 20 minutes ago.
- btakita 17y agoYes, having to actively think about all of the implications all of the time often leads to analysis paralysis. Automated tests often can alleviate this burden. It's often better to go quickly go down a path and see how it plays out, opposed to sitting there and thinking about something for a long time. When you move forward, problems and things you didn't think about become obvious.
