Aside from my desktop calculator there is no computing device or application in operation today that meets the definition of a single program on a single box.

Aside from my desktop calculator there is no computing device or application in operation today that meets the definition of a single program on a single box.
There is indeed no point in arguing about that.
And I’m not even sure about the calculator.
- mytailorisrich 6y agoIt is quite clear what a monolith approach means. It is well defined. If you build a webapp as, e.g. a Ruby on Rails app you have for practical purposes the whole of your app in a single program. You cannot have a few functions running here and other functions running there. It's all or nothing in the same place. This is not a judgement on the merits of different approach, just a simple statement of fact and I am surprised that this should trigger so much nitpicking and sarcastic put-downs.
