> I've always advocated for having a read only database connection to be available for your customers to make their own visualisations.
A layer on top of the database to account for auth/etc. would be necessary anyways. Could be achieved to some degree with views, but I'd prefer an approach where you choose the publicly available data explicitly.
GraphQL almost delivered on that dream. Something more opinionated would've been much better, though.
Valve saw the writing on the wall when Windows 8 was released. Their investment made Linux more feasible for the average user.
This makes me wonder how much better the world would be if corporations didn't have to answer to shareholders. Valve isn't publicly traded, Microsoft is.
Arguably CTA isn't exactly an obscure acronym. It's multi-disciplinary - quite common in UI/UX design and marketing; and also decently common in any branched of software engineering that interact with these topics, like... web development.

As a patient, I'm not sure if I'd be comfortable with the doctor operating on me doing a speedrun.
Full sterilization before each surgery is a good thing. Better safe than sorry. Same for only having one patient in the operating room - reduced risk of contamination and human error.
We're already at a point where more often than not people want to quit using online apps. I wonder if at some point we'll end up with the internet being completely abandoned because we did nothing to keep it usable?
Similar scenario to what might likely happen to our planet, now that I think of it.
