Back in the '50s, you'd wire up some vacuum tubes and flip a few switches to get "HELLO WORLD" on a teletype. Simple. Direct. You knew exactly what the machine was doing. Fast forward to 2026: you need a 2GB IDE that runs on Electron (because native apps are for boomers), pull in 400MB of node_modules (mostly left-pad and its 47 dependencies), spin up a 10,000-CPU cluster across three continents, all to generate 3 lines of JavaScript that render "Hello World" inside a 50MB binary. The 1950s programmer looks at this technological "progress" and just... can't. We've built so many layers of abstraction on top of abstraction that we've essentially created a Rube Goldberg machine that requires the GDP of a small nation to print two words. But hey, at least it's cross-platform and has dark mode.
