- "Well, do not blame them too quickly. What else would you do if you
- have to have the thing up and running 2 days from now? (that is

- No time to do much design is the most common answer to the question
- of why there is no or little design done befor jumping to coding."

- If you have so little time, it is even more important than usual not
- to jump into the coding, since you will have no time to correct errors.
- It takes discipline, but it is ALWAYS a good idea to design carefully
- before coding, ESPECIALLY when time is very tight.
