> Writing the code is the easy part. I’d say code flows from my brain more fluently than English does.
There's a certain irony in this statement. Writing code that works is easy, but writing code that clearly communicates a simple design to other programmers is not. Much like the difference between rudimentary use of English and that which is moving or persuasive. One is mechanical, the other achieves multiple objectives and requires a mastery of empathy.
