I'm not sure how you got "unable to perform their work" from what I was suggesting. A/B testing, analytics, CRUD, etc, are all features that are ancillary to any products that need to be made.
Imagine if a language had A/B testing baked right into it. You define a couple of functions annotated for A/B testing and they are automatically A/B tested. Putting all of this inline with product functionality is generally what causes these balls of mud in the first place.
- jdlshore 4y agoI think you’re overestimating the value of building such support into a language, rather than using libraries/frameworks, and underestimating the difficulty of creating bespoke languages. Speaking as someone who’s actually tried what you’re suggesting—in a production project—and learned not to do it again, this whole conversation smacks of theory-crafting rather than practical experience. But I invite you to try it!
