oh, so that's how it works...
Also maybe me thinking of it like it's a faulty power cable is a bit excessive...
Anyway, it looks like there will be less need for average programmers writing boring CRUD apps. I hoped it'd result from programming becoming more accessible to people, similar to writing.
If instead it happens through a centralized service, that's kinda sad.
But maybe it means those of us who keep their jobs can focus on the difficult/interesting problems?
