Here's hoping everyone on CP gives you coal for Christmas. Then you can have a BBQ.

Thats not totally strange I guess. When I was a kid there was this girl whose only goal was to be a nurse. No matter what game we played it had to be about a nurse. Instead of "I spy", we had to call it "I C U". If we watched cartoons, it had to be Winnie the Pooh because it had her favorite character ER. And of course if it was a movie, it had to be Disneys Anastasia...

My wife IS a Registered Nurse. Has been since 1972. Being married to her is like living under a microscope. 
Still, I would not trade her for the whole world.

Mutant ?

"to deviate or vary abruptly from type (as by bud variation) : MUTATE"
A mutant is a "freak" or "sport of nature".

I just read the article by JOE PROCOPIO declaring that those who pooh-pooh no-code/MVP are just haters. But you have to bear in mind that JOE PROCOPIO created and sells a no-code product. So of course he would write an article like this. He also declares that he really doesn't care what anyone thinks about no-code. That he was a long time coder himself and saw the light.
To be fair, there are a few no-code products. Most are done and have survived over decades; usually done by large companies like Microsoft. Excel is a prime example. But those kind of successes are relatively rare. I won't get into the overuse/abuse of business users using Excel sheets as a database.
On the other hand, I am not so sure JOE PROCOPIO is either aware, or had to confront, products purported to be low/no-code products that were a disaster - as I pointer out in an earlier discussion - BizTalk, also created by Microsoft; just to mention a few.
Lastly I need to point out, again, that these no-code tools almost always get pushed back to IT with requests for changes/additions/enhancements; and that's where the rubber does not meet the road. This side of his article leaves this issue out.
And as he states in his article, I am saying that I don't care what these no-code companies or Joe says, I will find it simply to hard to believe that this never happens. And my question would be - 'Will the request for change(s)/enhancement(s) be for free'? The usual response by these companies are 'We will evaluate change requests in the coming future versions. Thank you for your input'.

I don't think JOE ever had a real business problem to solve. SCRATCH is "no-code". LEGO is "no-code"; essentially puzzle pieces like a plumbing system ... if you need a plumbing system.

SCRATCH
I wrote a two player backgammon game in scratch with no rules enforced.
I wanted to make a one player version good enough to beat a kindergartner.
I had to switch to C# with the crudest of data structures(just arrays) to develop the logic.
No way I could have developed and tuned the algorithm in scratch.
I was more interested in SCRATCH because the earlier versions were developed in Squeak smalltalk. A good language and core library to study.
