    The right modules for a car are engine, frame, windshield, gas tank, but should everyone put them together themselves? Or just buy a car?

        @brianleroux and yet somehow most users of Unix start with pre-fab distributions. What does it mean?

        @wycats means we can (and should) build larger families of curated (and supported) abstractions from small composible units

        @brianleroux some might call that curated set a "distribution" or a "framework".

        @wycats right, some might want to reuse just the router even.

        .@wycats I think that people who build cars (i.e. devs) DO put them together. People who buy cars (i.e. website visitors) don't.

        @crtr0 framework authors are car builders. Devs are truck drivers or delivery folks. Some customization required, but mostly shared.

        Will agree to disagree MT @wycats framework authors are car builders. Devs are truck drivers or delivery folks.

        @crtr0 @wycats it’s more like erecting the towel of babel than building a car.

        @mikeal @crtr0 good analogy but somewhat weak. Lots of shared requirements in the real world.

        @wycats @crtr0 yup, and what enables that are minimalist shared interfaces which run counter to vertically stacked frameworks.

        @wycats I think the more interesting comparison here is with car manufacturers, who often share components and specs. Car buyers benefit.

        @yaypie yep, 100%. Modularity on the inside is key. Forcing it on end consumers not so much.

        @wycats I think the problem is assuming that all JavaScript devs are “consumers”. I think that’s unfair, and sometimes borders on elitism.

        @yaypie don't think that at all. Just lots of shared tech. Even racecar drivers start with something standard and tweak the hell out of it.
