    every single application is written in a completely random language/UI toolkit

    and none of them are written in good languages.

        I think we could actually be a decade away from "the end of history" on "good" programming languages, the rust revolution is leading the pack into the GUI app space.

          As someone who likes Rust, the second Rust finally blows up and sees meaningful market share people are going to find ten billion things that sucks about it that will get fixed in some other iterative replacement language.

          There are no good programming languages. Maybe some day.
