An interesting blog post that reflects some ideas I’ve been thinking about lately.

Since nothing close to the environment described in the article has entered the mainstream since ten years, it’s safe to say that it’s probably too hard or maybe too inconvenient.

I’d still like programming to go into this general direction, our tooling is really limited in comparison with how complex software has become.

I love the use of the female pronouns instead of he/she. Makes the text easier to read without triggering feminists. Anyway, I’m about halfway through and had to say this: This is the problem with nearly everything. You’re just told what and how it does but not why. I recently had a data-protection schooling at work and made some notes. Like they tell you that “social engineers“ manipulate you into giving them data (not to stick usb sticks you don’t know from some people into your PC, all the stuff you’re familiar with) but not how they obtain data.
