Post #3098016

@david_chisnall@infosec.exchange @aparrish@friend.camp great post. I agree. The Unix philosophy (which is to make small, modular CLI tools that you can pipe into each other) holds back such a comprehensive vision from appearing: a complete RAD GUI IDE - the sort that only a fairly large budget and team, headed by a benevolent dictator, not a committee - could create (like Delphi). The #Unix philosophy falls on its face when it's time to create an OpenSource Delphi *that everyone would want to use, and gains traction*, a sizeable and formidable undertaking (not to mention any credible threat to Active Directory). This failing does not go unpunished: along comes Microsoft with their Visual Studio Code, filling the gap, and leading impressionable, naive #OpenSource newcomers astray to #Microsoft technologies like Azure, C#, etc.
