1. MONOSPACE OR GTFO
2. VI OR GTFO, RINSE, REPEAT
3. IF INPUT IS FROM UNTRUSTED SOURCE, CHECK THE SHIT FIRST.  CHECK ALL UNTRUSTED INPUT.  EVERY SINGLE ITEM.  BUFFER OVERFLOWS SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED
4. ONE STATEMENT PER LINE, BRACES ARE STATEMENTS
5. JAVA SUCKS
6. SLOW HASKELL IS SLOW
7. IF YOU SEGFAULT, YOU DIE FOR REAL
8. I WOULD PROGRAM IN ASM BUT I HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO IN THE 20 YEARS IT WOULD TAKE ME TO WRITE A DECENT PROGRAM IN IT
9. UNIX NEVER DIES
10. GIVE IT AWAY, IT'LL BE CRACKED EVENTUALLY ANYWAY

A command line is a type of GUI.  It's just designed computers from the 1970s.
Fuck yeah! Let's generalize words to the point where everything means everything!
Modern GUIs suck for power-users, maybe the ideal interface is like a more powerful command line with layout features, better mouse support, drag and drop, speech recognition, etc.  But there is no reason to limit it to 1970s tech anymore.  The future does not have to be backwards compatible with the 1970s.
I agree with you on this one. But has there been any actual progress on this development?
