Comment on Ask HN: Does it still make sense to write code by hand?parent

Comments

Imagine a carpenter needed to be proficient in hand-saws to use their chainsaw well, and using their chainsaw required knowing details about the wood they were working with, in only the way using a hand-saw gave.

Makes it a littttttle more complicated.

Conversely, imagine only requiring carpenters to know how to use a chainsaw.
