Much of development and the stack has become better. I still remember writing code in Pascal when I'd been much younger when my program would randomly stop working. Eventually I would insert an empty line between two lines of code and suddenly it'd work again. A lot of work has been put into tools and our general ability to write better code (although whether we do so or not is a different issue).
