A call for more ambitious software engineering
Original: We should be more ambitious with the software we build
Developer Dan Luu argues that the software industry has become unambitious, settling for incremental improvements and reinventing mediocre tools rather than building genuinely better systems. The essay, circulating widely among engineers, contends that many accepted limitations in modern software are self-imposed and that teams could achieve far more with existing knowledge and resources.
Why now: The essay is resonating with developers frustrated by stagnant software quality and low industry ambition.
