YAML is the new XML. Monstrous configurations used by some magic runtime to glue pieces together.

Dependency injection frameworks were there already and decided against it at the end. I wish CI, data pipelines, config management, IaC tools and all other modern users of YAML-fits-everything approach learned from the past.

What we need is an ease of creating mini languages, but apparently it is not something industry/academia is aiming at, so this skill in not existent among common engineers, which often come up with ideas of new products.
