Tight coupling over fragile links is one of the industry's biggest problems right now. Tight coupling and fragile links are enemies.
'''WIP''' (or '''Works Not Started'''), in first person:▼
Additionally, for all the inroads that are made in increasing the power of software, there is a phantom contingent whose work has the ''effect'' (even without the explicit intent) of keeping computing and general software development inaccessible instead of more accessible. This type of obscurantism is a form of gatekeeping and needs to be minimized.
▲Other '''WIP''' (or '''Works Not Started'''; position papers), in first person:
* The case for the triple script module system
* The case for accepting the W3C–WHATWG hypertext system as the universal medium, aka "Browsers, builds, and burdens"
* The case for object-functional programming <!-- some discussion here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30293622 -->
