There seems to be a premise that a programming is actually easy and we are slowly realizing it. Who else finds it flawed?

I've seen plenty of open source code, proprietary startup code, corporate code and it is usually shit - full of premature assumptions and legacy mess. It's because writing good lasting code is super difficult even for great engineers. Moreover, running platforms usually need to be constant maintainance which drives up the demand even more.

What company writes lasting software nowadays? Most of the consumer facing stuff i use gets rewritten (worse, but fancily) for no apparent reason every 2 years. I can name products
