This is one weird article.
What it wants is standards, but the word is never used.
What it wants is the Unix philosophy-like micro-programs, that "Do One Thing And Do It Well.", but no mention of that either, except in drive-by disparaging text-driven interfaces that most of these currently use…
- wcoenen 6y agoThe article also made me think about the Unix philosophy of text pipes. I think Powershell is a step further in that direction, as it it allows you to pipe typed objects between scripts and cmdlets. It's just not clear to me how to extend that idea to a GUI-centric environment like a smartphone.
