I find it interesting but not surprising that this got downvoted. Sure my idea of the craft is different than the article's and of many people but if the craft only there if it is pure hand written code then it is a craft which the vast majority can not afford. I can pay a luthier a few thousand and get my dream guitar and would happily spend that sort of money on getting custom software but that is not going to happen if I insist on 100% handwritten code, just as getting my dream guitar would not happen if I insisted on the luthier only using hand tools.
