yes it all comes back to iteration, the original "vibe coding". for me, programming has always been about making it up as i go along. like an artist starts with one stroke, i started when i was 10 years old typing '10 print "hello, world" 20 goto 10' and i've never really stopped programming that way 47 years later. For me programming is the same as refactoring, they both happen in a continuous Zone throughout the day. The idea of spending this big period at the beginning Defining the Architecture then letting AI fill in the blanks makes no sense because I only know what the architecture is, what the product is, as part of a process of typing all day for days and weeks and months, that never ends.
