I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
I still tend to jump in and start coding my first idea. I tell myself it's a proof of concept or that I'm experimenting with different ideas but too often I just end up going with it and not putting the effort in to find a better solution.
I do this even if I have time to plan the project out, because I've worked in tight deadline agencies for so long it's become a habit that's hard to break.
