When I view your blog the yellow frame on the right hides some of the text (it's too wide) - Any idea how can I fix this?

Furthermore, I believe we will see a lot more emphasis on Not Surprising The Developer.”
  
  
I think it is more than that.  We must stop Surprising the User (including the Developer special-case), for all of the same reasons.  It seems to me that plugging-up the abstractions, and knowing how to have them fail appropriately when fail they must, is a perfect agenda for conquering the complexity that we have unleashed on the world in the name of mastering complexity.
