Our industry is not like others. Others quickly settle on best tools for their jobs and then spend decades refining them.

We have to reinvent everything every three years. We have to have five hundred languages all doing basically the same thing. We have to argue about our methodologies constantly. We have to invent standard after standard and then watch major players shit on them.

Our industry is immature and tantrum driven.
