Coding Horror: When writing code means you've failed
My Busy Box recommendation came after that team made several abortive attempts to implement different kinds of progress feedback.

The real challenge in modern programming isn't sitting down and writing a ton of code; it's figuring out what existing code or frameworks you should be hooking together.
