50 lines of code and contrived examples (is HelloWorld class a view or controller? AwesomeClass is a model?) get one line of HTML emitted in a barely readable way.

This article fails to motivate why each layer of complexity is added. It basically starts with the assumption that you want to use a framework and says "hey look you can do the same thing with 50 lines of boilerplate, not really, but kind of."

I would be much more impressed with an article that starts with the obvious way to write a PHP application (.htaccess, index.php, products.php, library/database.php, library/*.php) and then explains the actual problems that would make you want to opt for more complexity/organization/modern techniques.

Publishers care about growth more than serving existing customers.

Dear publishers, let's fix this. Whenever you publish a blog post, etc. please syndicate it on social and then go back to your site to add "DISCUSS THIS ON TWITTER/whatever AT https://t.co/aesou02". Make sure that this also syndicates to RSS.

Dear pubsubbers, let's fix this. In your reader software, please lint these special links and show the discussion below the news. We know you want to get into the content discovery business -- this is the first step.

See the Slashdot RSS feed as a good example, they inline the discussion right in the feed.

We have never done a complete reset from the ground up. But history is littered with incomplete attempts. This is because driver support and other niceties of modern systems would take enormous time to reinvent.

But if you could start over and you were in charge, how would things work differently?

I have a 80D and there is a 1/4" mount at the bottom. But if you take a photo in portrait orientation with a long lens then the 1/4" bolt will not be strong enough and the camera will twist out of it. It's a joke!

The extra $16k of float that Stripe requires is not worth it for me. This is why we have credit card numbers come to our server.
