Don’t Make the Wrong Mistakes:
Programming as Debugging
Paul Graham
[email protected]
Abstract
Sometimes it’s worth doing things badly in order to do them fast. When is this the right plan? Are
some kinds of mistakes worse than others? Could the right infrastructure make trial and error
programming more effective? How will it play out in the future?
