I don’t understand why we’re still shepherding our software through the CPU. Machines are so fast we should be focusing on the software, the experience. Instead, I watch as software gets bigger and bigger, more and more cumbersome. More difficult to understand.
When I started coding 30 years ago we had to write tight code which often meant having to shepherd code through the CPU. But today. Today CPUs are so fast what’s the point? Why do we write so many lines of code to accomplish so little?
Every time I look at Java code I get despondent. It’s all gone so wrong.
