We are doomed

I wanted to write about modern graphics APIs at first, how exclusive they are depending of the platform you are developing on (and for), and how difficult to use they are. However, after (over-)thinking about this blog post, I came to the conclusion that this problem could be generalized to all software.
A semi-regular reminder

Which is pretty much the reason I switched to web development, though granted, it still pushes the problem elsewhere to some extent. But with numerous platform-agnostic languages supporting server-side stuff, and more-or-less browser-agnostic front-end and with a good framework to handle mobile, the problem of what hardware on what platform is less of an issue, IMO, unless you need real performance. :laugh:

Ah, but that, IMO, is where the real challenges lie. Writing performant code for a resource-intensive task is the kind of challenge that I really enjoy.
