  • I haven’t read the blog yet but this gets me all the time. I always prefer when managers were former software developers themselves so they understand this innately.

    I can tell you if two strings match in one line of code. If you want any leeway though in the strings matching (say we accept heaven and haeven) we’ve just jumped to a whole separate class with at least three functions and minimum N*M longer compute time plus added complexity in feedback to user (underlining the input or whatever if it’s wrong). But to a regular manager it’s still just “check if two strings match”.
