Thoughts on priorities in software development

  • So much stuff doesn't work -- bugs stop you from accomplishing your desired task
  • Over time, complexity creeps in, making changes gets harder
  • The focus on performance, serverless, microservices, etc. -- these increase complexity, reduce reliability
  • Everyone agrees that the current status quo sucks, but we disagree on the solution: go back to how things worked in the past, or continue down the path we're on with the hope that things will improve
