Need for solidity
Let me tell you a dirty secret about programmers. We are the laziest lot of technicians in the entire community of engineering. We work really hard to remain lazy. We abide by the oath:
"If necessity is the mother of all inventions, laziness is their father."
No wonder we love the open source movement so much. Reusing another lazy programmer's code is what we fantasize about. And to add a little sprinkle of hypocrisy, we never ever forget to complain or criticize how messy the original code was, and how heroically we drove away the bugs and documented it to make it 2.0 or higher. It is just in our blood.
But, sometimes, in this land of lazy nerds, there comes an outlier, one who writes something entirely original from scratch. The entire lazy community then laughs at this scratchy code. Slowly this outlier removes the bugs from the new stuff, and starts getting traction. Still, we keep ignoring it. By now the outlier has already moved out to do yet another new thing and some...
