I have acutally kicked this idea around 4 or 5 years ago of A "WSW" but more so in a sense that modularity would have been the groundworks for such a revolution.

Modularity. Modules, taking the scale of what cpus on the phones have to what the cpus in the late 90's till now had... interoperability... it is just not there yet. Infact it stagnated.

Reminds me a job I had early on in life working under several intelligent people but unknowningly replacing 3.

Out of the 3 the 1st pushed me and encouraged me to move on when we debated who should stay, the 2nd was a surprise because I asked her why she was training me but sadly it was then I learned of her animosity toward me and her 30 years on payroll.

Which brings me to the last person I was replacing - the data scientist, the man that verfied my numbers and surely was verifying a lot of other things.

so having the guilt of the first two I happened to have a situation outside of my control land in my lap, I left the company immediately, positive they kept him onboard for atleast another 6 months to a year.

great experience nonetheless.

tldr: cost reduction hire, had to be vetted 1st - split before my conscience weighed too heavy.

he could bounce off another provider/server so he can still maintain what he is doing now - he just has not explored any other solution except blaming. the arguement "it should just work" is not vaild if you are reliant on another service.

Once upon a time writers actually took the time to investigate their "tools", like flying to Hawaii and sitting down with a psychologist in a small cafe and going over the numbers if you must.

Not everyone is in a New York state of mind. Once you Once Upon a time it speaks to narrowness.
