As someone who works as a software engineer and paints for fun, I've used the analogy once or twice. But it only holds a little. It holds in the sense that most of the time you start with an empty canvas. You use the tools you have at hand

I would like to point out that after visiting that link and allowing jsfiddle.net's scripts, my browser locked. Eventually I had to do a hard reset. This is on FF 20, Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS. Edit: This is reproducable, but this time I killed fi
