Code is cost. It costs merely by •existing• in any context where it might run. Code is a burden we bear because (we hope) the cost is worth it.
What happens if we write code with a tool that (1) decreases the cost-per-complexity of •generating• code while (2) vastly increasing the cost-per-complexity of •maintaining• that code? How do we use such a tool wisely? Can we?
Useful conversation about that starts on this ground floor:
