It's an ugly place. Immensely bloated libraries and frameworks, frequent churn of technologies based on what's the hot new buzzword of the moment, and everything feels like it's pretty much half-baked. "Memory efficiency? Need heard of it. What's that?" "CPU cycles? Just burn as much as you want because they're free!"

- ThrowawayR2 8y agoChange for the sake of improvement (whether successful or not) is good. Change for the sake of change is just a waste of time and energy. I see far too much of the latter in the web world.
