in reply to Mining and war as a metaphor for programming
Programming is like Pin Ball: if you get it right, you get to do it again.
Unfortunately, sometimes to get it right, you have to go to war. Four months, seven days a week, 12-14 hour days(one 38 hour day), mostly nights, when construction used up all the project slack time allocated for system integration(see tag line below).

There's never enough time to do it right, but always enough time to do it over...
