Suffering-oriented programming – thoughts from the red planet – thoughts from the red planet
Excellent post / advice:
“I follow a style of development that greatly reduces the risk of big projects like Storm. I call this style “suffering-oriented programming.” Suffering-oriented programming can be summarized like so: don’t build technology unless you feel the pain of not having it. It applies to the big, architectural decisions as well as the smaller everyday programming decisions. Suffering-oriented programming greatly reduces risk by ensuring that you’re always working on something important, and it ensures that you are well-versed in a problem space before attempting a large investment.
I have a mantra for suffering-oriented programming: “First make it possible. Then make it beautiful. Then make it fast.”"
