I am at times. In fact I was writing a response to your last email and
didn't send it only because it was more critical than useful. ;)
Suffice to say there's always room for improvement.

True, computers and everything around them are still quite primitive.
We've come a long way since punch cards, but there's still a long way to
go before they become truly intuitive for the user, and much longer
before they become so for the developer (or better still, when the
dividing line between the two disappears).
That said, every time I use a compiler or JavaScript coming back to Rev
afterward seems like heaven. :)
