- Maybe api:s aren't meant to last, maybe rewriting more is the piece missing from the puzzle. Always leaving evolution up to others doesn't really work if we all do it at the same time, and your brain is as good as mine when it comes to recognizing truth. - Picking frameworks is a bit like picking presidential candidates, the whole game is rigged from the start. Once upon a time software was about solving problems, about working creatively based on your own experience. We can still learn from each other, and share code; but I feel the push towards standardizing on over engineered, general purpose code is misguided; like we're staring at fingers pointing at the moon, arguing which finger is the perfect one. - New frameworks arise because needs aren't being met by the current status quo, hence we need innovation to get out of here. Where did this obsessive focus on popularity come from, anyway? I couldn't care less who did what, as long as we keep moving forward.
