We are Being Sucked Into Software

Software sucks - you already know that. But what you don't know - is that it is sucking the rest of the world into it!

First, a word about sucking. It was originally a derogatory phrase - indicating that something was inferior. But gradually people realized that sucking was vital for our survival. This is how we got our food, as babies - and in some ways, we never grow up, and should not grow up - but keep learning keep eatingall our lives. To put his another way- Software is eating the world.

Take a look at The increasing nature of frontend complexity. He is talking as a person, to other persons. And what he is talking about is something concrete (code) - not the mathematical abstractions of the traditional Sciences.

This is Computer Science, and it is not same at all.
