- sidlls 9y agoI wish there were some way to avoid being subject to resume driven development when I'm on the internet. Alas, it's not to be, because instead of taking a step back and asking "do we need this" we get webdevs asking "how can I force fit the latest shiny bauble into my professional CV." And we end up with react graphQL node AWS kubernetes docker rube goldberg machines pumping tens of millions of bytes of data and billions of bytes of markup and JavaScript through Kafka all to serve up news text.
