Everything is going to hell and nobody seems to care
Recently re-discovered this gem of a blog post, written in 2018 by Nikita Propokov, about his disenchantment with the state of modern software. Do you think it’s still relevant today (perhaps more/less so than it was when it was written)?
Software is like clutter in your closet: it expands to fill the space available. There doesn’t seem any way to prevent it. I’m starting to think the whole phenomenon is related to the Second Law of Thermodynamics. 🤨
