Dependency minimalism (writing software that deliberately tries to have as few dependencies as practical) is a really underrated virtue imo.

Every single dependency is a risk that "something will go wrong" during someone's installation process. Installing projects with hundreds of dependencies and walking through errors can be incredibly frustrating.

Nah… like saying humans shouldn’t depend on fresh air, clean water…

What then are areas where there should be high dependency?

The trend toward everything being electric and (at least small scale) being charged with USBC, is really good. Much better than the previous status quo of electric vs gasoline vs propane, micro USB vs mini USB vs custom connectors vs batteries...

So dependency minimalism is great in physical space too.

I agree, depending on a few or many is too vague. Relying on battle hardened dependencies is better than writing it new. AI being the future will go to the max with CRUD. Create, Read, Update and Destroy all code on front and backend and only rely on databanks is a possible future. Depending only on many trained LLM networks 100% e.g. only dependencies.
