Am I the only one who reads about this huge inelegant approach to increasing your "productivity" by simply brute-forcing more words per day. And can't avoid to think "woa, such a huge waste, she should just use all that energy to write a bot that does all that writing and save time in the long run"?
I already cry inside when I see the same design pattern repeat itself, twice, in my code. I just have to re-factor it, to avoid waste. And she's writing 10,000 words a day, that won't make the next 10,000 any more efficient? I literally cringe in fear.
Brute-forcing? What she was originally doing was brute forcing. She's changed to a more planned, intelligent way of writing, the opposite of brute-forcing. It's a classic 'work smarter, not harder' article.
Probably my fault that I wasn't clear. It's just an analogy to my world and how I usually deal with problems as a programmer. If I had to write 10k words a day, I would write a bot to do it. And any more planned, intelligent way of doing that, manually, would just feel like bandaging a brute-force solution instead of looking for an elegant one.

I should probably take a break.
