Fixing the first problem and finding alternatives I think is far more easier to fix than the second. We have had several thousand years to figure-out a solution to the problem of rulers politicians and yet, after all this time, here we are

To me the biggest problem with web development is, not that it's too big. I feel the information is really disorganised. For instance, take most of the front-end projects; finding good documentation is a fool's errand. I think we
