This is ignoring the fact that code is a more useful blueprint than anything else for programs.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m sure if architects had the ability to magically conjure building materials out of thin air and try things in real life for free, architecture would involve a lot more trying and a lot less planning.&lt;p&gt;Of course, I&amp;#x27;m sure the article is talking about people just rushing into production code without thought, and I get that is a problem. It&amp;#x27;s just when people make comparisons like that it can imply this horrendous future where we whiteboard program for months, which is just a terrible idea.</text><parent_chain><item><author>valuearb</author><text>&amp;quot;For Lamport, a major reason today’s software is so full of bugs is that programmers jump straight into writing code. “Architects draw detailed plans before a brick is laid or a nail is hammered,” he wrote in an article. “But few programmers write even a rough sketch of what their programs will do before they start coding.”&lt;p&gt;I almost always dive in, but I almost always write my code twice.
