| If the code is disposable then where do all the rules and reasoning etc live apart from in your head? |

| In the spec. |
| |
| ▲ | globular-toast 2 days ago | parent [-] | | Hmm... my code is the spec. It just happens to be executable. Is writing a precise spec in English easier than in a programming language? | | |
| ▲ | dotancohen 2 days ago | parent [-] | | The spec contains ambiguities and the code contains bugs. Clarifying ambiguities in the spec with stakeholders, allows one to reduce bugs in the code. | | |
| ▲ | caseyohara 2 days ago | parent [-] | | If you repeat this process until all ambiguities in the spec are eliminated, aren't you essentially left with code? Or at least something that looks more like code than plain English? | | |
