On: The Web Is More Than Enough, by Paul Ford

Crazy to say when desktop apps and TUIs are becoming more useful than ever. No the web is not enough, even for something as simple as version control.

We're probably further away now from "web is enough" than we were 5 years ago.

What if I told you not everyone is a developer?

And your point being?

The web and people developing for it still have a long way to go before it's enough for me.

Also if you read the article, the topic is discussed entirely within the context of software development and distribution.
