Nice post!

I remember HyperCard, it was really my first intro into doing something with my old mac, other than drawing pictures.

I totally agree with your points of view and have really enjoyed your perspective.
Javascript is really become more confusing and the more people are jumping on board, the more ‘frameworks and tools’ are being thrown into the pool.

But I have for a while now thought that the ultimate solution would be something completely new and removed from the old way of doing things, not mere an evolution of the previous.

Thank you. Your comment and those of the others are encouraging me to continue a little further along the same lines. There's no shortage of technically-oriented articles on software engineering so I try to apply some balance by placing more emphasis on the human side of things.

My concern is particularly that too many people with lesser technical skills (among whom I number myself) are being excluded from contributing at a time when there is a vast and growing amount to be done. The reactions I'm getting to my articles help dispell the fear that I'm just wasting the time of professionals by writing about things the way I do.
