The one thing that has plagued me is the disorganized complexity of the whole computer programming situation.
Gist, Gits, Stack Overflow, Gamedev.net, IRC freenode, branches, forks, etc.
There are a billion ways to do a billion things.
I called it all "Disorganized Complexity."
It seems I wasn't the first to coin the phrase:

A quote from the passage:

I have been wondering if there is a way to organize this complexity.

as a system with zillions of disconnected parts, operating in random fashion, and their interaction is chaotic and predictable - not based on intentional engineering, but through probability and chance computations
