the craft has been commoditized, but access has not

One of the original promises of a personal computer was that the computer would be personal. It's kind of strange to think that, now in 2026, it has taken circa 40 years for this to actually become true.You see, over the last 40 years, someone was either a software developer, also known as a programmer, and in that case they were able to make a computer personal. If you didn't have these skills, you were given an interface, and your ability to personalize the computer or software was limited to what the interface could do.Something strange is happening in game development circles right now.
