I'm starting to feel like Bret spends more time saying what's wrong with things than providing solutions. I'm a huge fan, but just saying, hoping to see him ship something representing his ideas.
- widdershins 11y agoI don't think that's entirely fair. It's true he hasn't shipped any finished products, but he's shown concrete examples that have inspired a lot of people to do better. One example that comes to mind - livecoding using C++ JIT [1]. The creator of this cited Brett's work as a prime inspiration.

- andrewflnr 11y agoSo he's been a normal blogger lately, rather than the developer of inspiring software we've come to expect from him? Give the man a break. :)
