If a dev only designs a solution that fits for exactly the current situation but doesn’t allow any changes, it’s not a good dev.

I don’t think anybody is arguing this. Nobody (in my decade-plus in this industry) actively codes in a way to not allow any changes.

I always lump microservices architecture as premature optimization, one that should be used when you’re maxed out of resources or everything is too spaghetti.

I love the idea. And I even pitched it for a specific project. But I had to eat humble pie when the devops nerds threw more servers at the problem and it worked better than I expected.

This is really corny. What cool people think sounds cool?

Same energy as this

Ah in this town square metaphor, don’t forget the private company’s CEO has a megaphone and talks over people, and outright kicks them out of the square if you hurt his feelings.

I think remaking it with less.

I even watched the fan edit, and it was still too much.

Do longer run remakes for good source material that ended up with a bad movie.

I immediately thought The Hobbit for some reason.

God that trilogy was so painful.

I was confused because yeah… Why is this gif using a GUI?

I swear that most commenters are young people because back in the 90s-2000s, taxis and hotels were hot fucking garbage.

Taxis would go on joy rides to up the cost or refuse you if you were black.

Hotels would tell you to go suck a dick because their price listed outside is not for you, and if you want a place, they have a room with roaches near the heater.

Uber/Airbnb were gamechangers that broke that monopoly.

Unfortunately, they have gotten to shit. But you know what? Taxis and hotels have cleaned up their act. Because the moment they go to shit again, Uber/Airbnb will come in and eat their lunch.
