Is code just a byproduct of specs then? Any thoughts on literate programming?

Literate programming is for programs that is static and don't ever change much. Works great for those cases though.

No, what works is the same that worked 20 years ago. Nothing have truly changed. You still have layers upon layers, that sometimes pass something, othertimes not, and you sometimes wished it passed something, othertimes not.
