Coding
Communicate without ambiguity
When you specify something - a recipe, a behavior, or a formula - you’re coding. Someone else, even a person with lower familiarity could execute it. That makes it ‘real’.
Coding is about taking a user’s need and specifying it for a machine to execute. You make the user’s need more and more specific, till it ends in usable code. Then the user will have further needs, of course 😊
Habits for effective coding
- Habit of precision: Recognize and remove ambiguity
- Habit of modularity: Specify a consumer’s need in parts
- Habit of humility: Acknowledge your limits, collaborate, learn
- Habit of persistance: Keep refining
Crafting your habits
Habits are built by deliberate practice. Guide your practice with help from humans, automated guardrails, and AI. Use this sequence of assignments and reviews to build your habits.

Practical workflows to use as GitHub actions, based on this literature. Catch your issues as you make them!
