r0ml's third law states that: “Any distributed system based on exchanging data will be replaced by a system based on exchanging programs.” I believe the same pattern is inevitable for these higher level abstractions and interfaces to generate computer instructions. The language use must ultimately conform to a rigid syntax, and produce a deterministic result, a.k.a. "code". Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5fmhYc4U-Y |

So distributed systems tend to converge towards being more and more mystifying? Cf. the mythical mammoth:
> Show me your flowcharts and conceal your tables, and I shall continue to be mystified. Show me your tables, and I won’t usually need your flowcharts; they’ll be obvious.
