This is an excellent piece of writing. The aphorism "Go slow and fix things." is brilliant. I'm stealing that. I implore people reading this thread to watch this Alan Kay video from 1997, where he rather predicts (albeit perhaps implicitly, if not explicitly) that we will reach the situation we are in today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKg1hTOQXoY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKg1hTOQXoY There is a quote from the talk which rings true with many of the comments here "HTML on the internet has gone back to the dark ages, because it presupposes that there should be a browser which understands its formats" I have found the odd nit with the article: "In one way, it is easier to be inexperienced: you don’t have to learn what is no longer relevant." I think he might mean unlearn, but it's a bit ambiguous. :-)
