Death to JSON

At the end of the day, what the author is advocating for is a way to get rid of some boilerplate to validate data input. Something that most JSON libraries already provide.

The only reason to use a binary format over text format is if it helps reduce the size of the stream in an environment where it matters.

use google protocolbuffer instead.
