@amoroso @ramin_hal9001 @sacha @screwtape I too really enjoyed the post. I have a question though.
But Isn't this a semantic game? Aren't the definitions of "one thing", what this one thing is and "doing well" so flexible that we can apply to anything? For example, a set of n items is one thing too.
Can we say electron or the js ecosystem fulfils the unix philosophy too because it does the one thing of quickly building cross platform apps really well?

@kaia They will be less than double your age in the future. Let's say your age is x. Their age will be 2x. After y years,
Your age: x + y
Their age: 2x + y
double your age: 2(x +y) = 2x + 2y
So their age is less than double your age.
