[News] Why Code Reuse (Open Source) Beats Reinventing the Wheel (Properietary Software)

Programmers Don't Like to Code

| Another reason outsiders think we like to code is that we're always
| talking about rewriting things. Even coders themselves fall into
| the delusion we rewrite because it's "more fun than reading
| other people's code".

| Summing up: programmers don't like to code, we like to solve
| problems. Coding is not problem solving, but software problem
| solving usually involves some coding. Even when we talk about
| rewriting something, the objective is not to code, it's
| usually to get a better understanding of the problem for
| solving in the best possible manner.
