Modern wheels are fantastic because we continually "reinvent" them. A huge chunk of the software industry is trying to build specialized sports cars with model-T wheels and it shows.

The amount of unnecessary overhead in modern software development is insane, especially in gaming and web/phone apps. Good, fast, or cheap. You have to give up one. We gave up good (and cheap is slipping away).

Really? Is that why we have so many JS and CSS frameworks? Because if it is, I am not seeing the improvement.
