• … Software no longer needs to be preserved. Systems will be created, tested and discarded naturally.

    By far the dumbest word vomit take on software I’ve seen in a while. Who wouldn’t want to have tax systems and critical infrastructure being treated like slop with no accountability, and many rewrites because “software is no longer scarce”…

    • Non developers and non technical people that are already accustomed to bad software, basically following the broken window problem combined with lack of knowledge to do better.

      I’m not saying I agree, and I hope saner heads prevail, but I can definitely see the future trending this direction not because it’s best but because it’s easier and maybe cheaper (by some measurement).
