> Maybe it’s a personal preference after all but my ADHD brain for sure prefers debugging. > Debugging is sometimes more challenging and the boundaries are clearly defined : you know how the program should behave and you know when you get it. You know what doesn’t work so it’s easy to go TDD : when the test is green you are good to go ! > Whereas writing new code is a pain for my dopamine system because I never know when it’s done. Oooooh, that fits with my drifting towards debugging other's code (even when I have 0 experience with the language) and debugging infrastructure configuration. I sometimes think I may have some ADHD traits but I don't believe I have it. Though I recently decided to adopt some ADHD strategies to organize my home/life and it has had some effects/benefits. Maybe I should pivot harder away from coding and drift towards sysadmin. |
