Software companies aren't made of code, much like
bakeries aren't made of bread.
Software companies are made of
*processes that produce and maintain code*.
Software is a by-product of these processes.
It's not even the *final* product — it's a means to an end.
The final product is a solution to a business problem.

Indeed, *Alan Newell* said something to this effect in 1990:
"The question for me is
how can the human mind occur in the physical universe?
We now know that the world is governed by physics.
We now understand the way biology nestles comfortably within that.
The issue is how will the mind do that as well.
The answer must have the details.
I [need] to know how the gears clank
and how the pistons go
and all the rest of that detail.
My question leads me
to worry about the architecture".
