Write Code - Run Software
So I was thinking..
Why do we say I write software and My code is running in the cloud?
I don't write software. I write code. Code lives in my editor. Software runs ... Somewhere.
When I entertain guests, I don’t serve them recipes. I serve them food.
I don’t know when exactly code becomes software. It might be when it is no longer the engineer, but someone, or something else that interacts with it.
So what?
I don’t know, but it feels important.
