People have been building bridges for thousands of years. We've been doing software for barely two generations. Try to imagine what the first generation of bridge-building looked like. Don't worry: we'll catch up. Give us a few thousand years.
- imtringued 7y agoThe fact that our CPU designs and languages keep changing every year doesn't help. I'm sure there are lots of Z80 experts that know how to develop high quality software for that processor but nowadays we need to support x86, ARM and soon RISC-V. This forces us to use Javascript, Java or Kotlin which are cross platform by default. However, Kotlin is a very new language. Javascript and Java are currently undergoing rapid iteration (Java 14 is out!).
