Without even trying to lookup the authors and their backgrounds (if I was into betting) I would bet a sizable wager that the core group responsible for this come from extremely large companies (or my second guess would be a consultancy who caters to large companies).
In my entire career I have never seen more confusion and misunderstanding about how to use frameworks than I have when working for companies listed on major stock indexes with multi-billion USD market caps.
- unexaminedlife 6y agoYep, it was consultancy working with large companies. :)
- wccrawford 6y agoConsultancies are especially unrealistic because many of them tend to take on new projects without having to maintain very many of them. That's definitely going to skew your view of standardized tooling. If instead this company was focused on long term support or fixing other companies' mistakes, I think the view would be different.
- ric2b 6y agoIt will depend a lot on the type of consultancy. If they mostly get called to fix legacy projects they probably only see the issues and limitations imposed by frameworks. If they mostly get called to jumpstart a new project they'll probably love frameworks that let them deliver quickly and reliably, since they don't have to worry about long term scope changes and maintenance.

Is it actual confusion, or just difficulty in interoperating with the libraries/frameworks that large companies often already have?
