I find this to be a poor analogy. humans do work they speak to other humans to coordinate speaking a different language lowers coordination bandwidth humans write programs they write programs in any language to produce any artifact I dont see how the method of artifact production relates to coordination bandwidth the purpose of programming languages isn't to facilitate communication with other humans, a source code artifact is isomorphic to a binary artifact, its purpose is to encode a description, like DNA. > few people have had the time to do anything really sophisticated with software ok
