2/ As any discipline matures, it gets progressively demystified from "personality-driven" to "object-driven." The focus shifts from what an individual can do (due to mysterious, inscrutable internal forces), to what the tools can do (how they can be combined and used together)

3/ Close parallel to software dev't: coding used to be limited by an individual person's temperament, focus ability, memory, specific knowledge; now it's limited by their ability to use and combine existing tools, frameworks, snippets, microservices

4/ Just as Object-Oriented Programming favored modular pieces of software that could interact via standardized interfaces, we're seeing the same thing happen as personal productivity matures

5/ What's important now is NOT one's personal capabilities: focus ability, self-discipline, raw intellect, good memory. What matters is the ability to orchestrate existing tools, platforms, services, products, programs, etc. into SYSTEMS that work reliably, day and night
