It has become significantly cheaper and easier to build software.
That has come at the cost of an enormous complexity paid by hardware and reliability.
- ghaff 3y agoI question the reliability part. Certainly there is more complexity (in some respects), more dependencies, etc. But I'd probably argue that most of the software I use today is more reliable than equivalent software (if it existed) that I used a couple decades ago.
