I think the most infuriating thing to me about this article is that the author doesn't understand the existing tools well enough to have any idea why we need new ones, and instead decided to complain on his blog about how programming is too hard.

ANYTHING is hard when you first start out. Try making a table out of wood, or doing origami, or playing an instrument for the first time, and unless you're some bizarre savant you're going to effing SUCK at it. Learn why things are the way they are, or in this case learn the way things are in the first place, and your results will improve.

Wood working is too hard. I don’t care about the properties of this type of wood against that other type of wood. I just want to build a table. Let’s add a wood-working suite in the web browser so I can plan, execute, and build my table from there.
