Language as an Ultimate Approach to Problem Solving
summary
Central claim: solving problems means find a language where the solution is obvious rather than tweaking one familiar tool. Evidence is practical: expand literal languages, design and architectural patterns, and algorithmic ways of thinking so problems collapse into simple expressions; university success maps to having a diverse toolkit that can be learned elsewhere. Recommended actions are specific: learn more languages, teach or invent a language to make collaborators see the obvious solution.
