Comment on Software Development Has Too Much Software in It

Comments

Yep, we've built "stack" after "stack" out of collecting and manipulating rows of data and right now probably a thousand eager young developers are noodling on how to do it slightly differently, probably counting down the minutes till they can launch Slightly Different Stack on HN and maybe even Product Hunt if they're feeling really good about their slight differences!

This might have been worth something when we were "learning" and "evolving" what the web actually is as a platform for software, when we needed to attract ninja rockstars with standardized skillsets through our developer blogs, but it is probably entirely superfluous with AI.
