Writing Is Closer to Thought Than Code
A new essay by security researcher Daniel Miessler argues that writing functions as an extension of thinking itself, and is therefore closer to thought than programming is. The piece is drawing attention on technology discussion forums, where readers are debating whether prose or code better captures how the mind works, particularly in an era when AI can generate both.
Why now: Tech communities are actively debating the relationship between writing, coding, and thinking as AI tools blur the lines between them.
