Seriously, I am sick of elevators thay run Javascript, cars that run docker and self driving cars running linux.
This is not good enough. Our industry is a joke.
- lillecarl 3y agoIf the elevator company can put in a display, run Linux, cage and electron / webbrowser I think that's a good idea. What I don't think is great is frontend people I work with having "map" explained to them because they don't know. vscode proves "js bad" wrong over and over, crap software can be written in any language.
- sitkack 3y agoAll of those things are so complex that faults are repaired by rebooting it. That is not a solution
- lillecarl 3y agoI disagree, if they can get a product with great UX through the door but has to reboot the system on a timer (maybe once it knows its empty from a PLC input) every so often I'd call it a solution. In fact, Boeing thinks rebooting an airplane is a solution to integer overflow[0]. While I do not appreciate everything being a Web app it's also a very robust platform to build upon, there aren't many projects that gets as many eyes as browsers and their components.

- ClumsyPilot 3y ago> oeing thinks rebooting an airplane is a solution to integer overflow exactly, that's horrifying. Only seppuku would be enough of a punishment. Mechanical things need mechanical software that never fails. Now, the embedded industry has largely failed at software development and they are using softeare that was not meant for them.
