I find it amazing how much the mess that building C/C++ code has been for so many decades seems to have influenced the direction technology, the economy and even politics has been going.
Really, what would the world look like if this problem had been properly solved? Would the centralization and monetization of the Internet have followed the same path? Would Windows be so dominant? Would social media have evolved to the current status? Would we have had a chance to fight against the technofeudalism we're headed for?
