To me they felt very similar to Joe Armstrong's "Why do we need modules at all?" [0]: --- Why do we need modules at all? This is a brain-dump-stream-of-consciousness-thing. I've been thinking about this for a while. I'm proposing a slightly different way of programming here The basic idea is - do away with modules - all functions have unique distinct names - all functions have (lots of) meta data - all functions go into a global (searchable) Key-value database - we need letrec - contribution to open source can be as simple as contributing a single function - there are no "open source projects" - only "the open source Key-Value database of all functions" - Content is peer reviewed ... --- Whole thread's worth a read.
