In my opinion, the whole paradigm how we use computers needs to be replaced. It is like the 80s, but now with internet and a thread larger then anything in computer history before. I remember boot sector viruses and stuff.

My approach is https://tix.im/ - not launched yet. But from expedience: modeling everything as workflows of composeable nix flakes (expert systems from programs, skills, agents, workflows and their snippets, DBs blobs, service descriptions, ...) and then run everything in highly isolated environments. It is not only so much more efficient, reduces errors, increases quality, reduces unnecessary cognitive load, ...

I start to move more and more daily tasks into the systems. Even UI programs become interactive workflow steps, which allow me to attach from anywhere back to a task in an environment optimized for the task.

Dependency updates for example, a workflow. A subgraph from a security scanner expert checks each change in the dependency tree.
