Discarded wit
/I’m writing some stuff about creating your own programming language at the moment. As I write I find things that I quite like, but aren’t really suitable for publication. Good thing I’ve got the blog then….
Bottom-up design: Start with the low level functions and build on them.
Bottoms-up design: Start by getting very drunk and writing some random code
Bottom-down design: Just get more and more depressed about what you are trying to do
Bottom-out design: Hope that things won’t get any worse.
Top-down design: start with the big picture and then break it down into chunks to build a map of your solution. Then create each chunk.
Top-up design: find a coffee place that does free refills and then keep drinking caffeine until inspiration strikes or you have a seizure.
Top-trumps design: forget about writing software and spend your time playing card games from your childhood.
