Some folks read Peter Naur's Programming as Theory Building [1] and become zealots. I'm that kind of person. His ideas are woven through my recent talks [2]. Via years of essays, I've been building to a vision of how to build software that I'm calling Continuous Design that's partly stitched together in this overview [3].

Validation of highest order! Thank you for the reply. I finally read the full original text of Programming as Theory Building.

Thanks for your writing as well. As the OP said, the Intellectual Control essay is extremely insightful.
