Hi, author here. Thanks for your comment.<p>&gt;&gt;The computer shifted the complexity of our solutions from the world of atoms to the world of ideas.
&gt;And that&#x27;s fucking awesome! Thanks everyone that was part in making that a reality!<p>I glad you are entertained with programming. I am too! but we should judge a tool like programming by its productivity, not by it&#x27;s entertaining powers.<p>&gt; We can create things as complex as we can logically describe them.<p>One of my points is that we can&#x27;t. To make a single app facebook needs hundreds of engineers and it is still buggy. Humans are, yet again, the weaker link in software engineering. I believe we need fundamentally better tools.<p>&gt; It&#x27;s also incredibly difficult to create something that will acomodate everyone else&#x27;s solutions.<p>Agreed. I&#x27;d very happy with a tool that is not general purpose that could churn though CRUD systems (vast majority of systems our there) in a matter of hours without errors. If you want to something else like AI, or games or whathaveyou, use other tools built specifically for that or a programming language if none are available.<p>That CRUD tool (gross oversimplification) could be expanded with new capabilities as long as we understand those new capabilities properly.<p>&gt; Saying programming sucks and wishfull thinking does not help anyone. Not happy? Start hacking on the next thing!<p>I am, thanks for the encouragement.
