On HN it’s probably having a great deal of control and ownership over our systems. I’m not sure that’s what most people would consider glory though.&lt;p&gt;I work with digitalisation in the public sector of Denmark, one of the most digitised countries in the world. We have thousands of employees and citizens who interact with our systems on a daily basis and when we benchmark them on what they want public sector software to be like they unanimously tell us they want it to be more like the iOS experience.&lt;p&gt;They simply don’t want technology to get in the way, and they don’t care that the price for this is ownership and freedom. For them the glory days won’t begin until they can get completely away from the operation systems and applications of “old”.</text><parent_chain><item><author>fit2rule</author><text>I think we can return to the glory days of computing with one small tweak: insist that OS vendors include a lean and clean compiler in the default install.&lt;p&gt;An OS that ships without tools to make apps for it is not an Operating System but rather an Appliance System.&lt;p&gt;And, for those who will reply &amp;quot;but my disk space and all the bloat of a compiler onboard methodology&amp;quot; - well that&amp;#x27;d be a next step: destroy the bloat.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>“Bicycle of the Mind”</title><url>https://medium.learningbyshipping.com/bicycle-121262546097</url></story>
