This is it for me as well. It comes down to which is quicker to write. If I need an exact solution or implementation, then I just write it, because the code is significantly more efficient to describe the problem in than in plain english. An exception being visual things like plots, if we just care about a way to get to a plot, vague english is fine and likely less effort than writing code. i.e. function to calculate things, just write it; want to plot some data, vibe it. I can see immediatly if its not quite right and in a line can ask for the change i needed, zero cognitive effort required to fix issue, and hey presto, we have what we want. i think this stems from the fact natural language is generally quite inefficent for logical statements / arguments / instructions but can gather visual ideas far more efficiently than code can. |
