Discussion on: Why is our source code so boring?

I kinda disagree here.
A hundred years ago there was no source code.
What started as punching holes through paper eventually became digital, then has gone through probably a thousand permutations to end up in the editors we use today.
How is that not considered "a single revolution" ???
It may not be amazing as the ideas in your head, but dude, A LOT has changed and improved over the last 3 decades alone.
Side note:
IDEs with drag and drop reusable components would be nice, but frankly i'd settle for better performances in the existing IDEs first.
And seriously why do none of them come with SSH or SFTP built-in? I get serverless, but a large number of us still work directly with servers too.
