From a scientific point of view we can - not just will - never know the origin of life.
Of course, popular science frames it differently.

Or wait another year and pick the winner of the JavaScript framework war. It's unlikely that we will see new and relevant(!) JS frameworks over the next few years as we have seen in the past. 20 - 25 years ago dozens of Windows frameworks appeared on the market. Eventually VB won. History is repeating itself.

It's the same in all groups. You get popular by posting content that conforms to the group-think and avoid content that doesn't. This leads to uniform, harmonic but also eventually uninteresting groups that sanction deviant behavior.

That's why companies implement Agile. It's all about "solving business problems". No architecture, no design, no documentation (merely 'user stories'). Dump and re-write instead of maintain. All your problems solved!

Re:A Language Is More Than a Language
on Sunday October 04, 2015 @11:49AM (#10327824)
I have no doubt that you cannot win the 'war' on the language front. All those bloggers, internet and conference luminaries that never write real-world production code miss the point. It's about the platform, the whole programming ecosystem not about 'beautiful' syntax. That's why Java - the platform (Java EE, Android, ...), not the language - won and is still going strong. New languages (D, Rust, ...) have not the ghost of a chance unless they are able to create a platform.
