"We are destroying software by no longer taking complexity into account when adding features or optimizing some dimension.

And we are destroying software with complex build systems.

And we are destroying software telling new programmers: “Don’t reinvent the wheel!”. But, reinventing the wheel is how you learn how things work, and is the first step to make new, different wheels."
