'One of my most productive days was throwing away 1000 lines of code.' -- Ken Thompson

How much do you program nowadays?

For the 3 1/2 years ending Oct 12 2019, I programmed daily (http://paulgraham.com/bel.html ). Since then I've been taking a break and have only written occasional programs with/for my son using Replit Basic.

As a gradual student I did simulated quantum performance of superconducting devices. The year I learned what a kLOC is was the year I rewrote the core of my simulations based on my much improved understanding. Pretty sure my “productivity” that year was negative many kLOCs!
