A comment on The “No Code” Delusion. Parent comment
If I order a pizza, I’m using a communication channel (phone, internet) to place an order; one tool.
I deeply hope the pizza place is using chefs and an oven to make the pizza; completely different tools.
If I demanded the pizza chef make the dough, slice the ingredients, and bake the pizza with just a stand mixer... that’s just dumb.
Use the appropriate tool for the job and use the right level of abstraction at each step.
