> Why is the modern software industry in such a constant state of flux? This is true of both language design and software practices. It's painfully obvious. There are no standards for what constitutes "better" or even "good". Is strict typing better? To what degree? What's it worth as a tradeoff? There are almost no quantitative analyses (https://quorumlanguage.com/ https://quorumlanguage.com/ - an attempt was made), which is lamented https://vimeo.com/9270320 https://vimeo.com/9270320 by some. Even ROLES are not well defined (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhfVK_ubk8U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhfVK_ubk8U) because roles are dependent on known concerns, which are also fuzzy in this industry. Saying development is immature is so understated, it's laughable.
