THAT POC COULDA BEEN A SPEC.
Discussion
I think about the “how” for a while then end up completing the project within a week and it always ends up pretty damn great
Yeah, people keep trying to wow me with PoCs, and it's like.... I would have done a better job.
Next time, Messy Hacker Bro, just write the idea on a napkin and send me a screenshot.
I can do the pointy-clicky thing myself. 🙄
But isn't a poc more fun? 😁
Yeah, see, that's the thing....
...some of us have work to do
I think people also underestimate how much information someone like me can glean, just by seeing the structure of a new event kind. I usually don't even read the spec, I just look at the json snippet, and it's like, "Oh okay, got it, cool. Thanks, bro."
And, like, we could AI that PoC in 15 minutes, if you give us a solid spec. We don't need them for prototypes.
An endless stream of buggy prototypes built by people with the engineering attention span of a gnat.
Needed nobody ever. GN
