Quotes
From there it is only a small step to measuring 'programmer productivity' in terms of 'number of lines of code produced per month.' This ia a very costly measuring unit because it encourages the writing of insipid code, but today I am less interestd in how foolish a unit it is from even a pure business point of view. My point today is that, if we wish to count lines of code, we should not regard them as 'lines produced' but as 'lines spent': the current conventional wisdom is so foolish as to book that count on the wrong side of the ledger.
