Programming as Theory Building - Peter Naur · GitHub
https://gist.github.com/onlurking/fc5c81d18cfce9ff81bc968a7f342fb1

Interesting: programming is not about finishing a product, it is about making, understanding and working with the thing. So programming is not about the end result, it is about the experience. Reminds me of chronos vs kairos.
