Like the SOLID post I feel like I somewhat agree with the sentiment but disagree with a lot of the specific points. This seems like a pretty opinionated prescriptive. For example, in my mind microservices is just SOA with no lower bound on service size ...and no upper bound for that matter. IE we're not wasting time arguing services need to be split or merged just because of their "size." (units aren't even specified) OP seems to think we should be worrying about what frameworks are used... This post seems to really beat the programmer with "just try harder with tests and you'll get it!", or "your app cannot crash". Oh sure. No crashes. Why didn't I think of that? Then it pines for magical tools that don't exist. I really don't understand what learning there is to get out of this article. It doesn't even touch on the biggest problems of "how do you separate services into logical units with minimal cross talk" and "When you do have cross service communication, how can you deal with that distributed computation." "Just write tests" isn't helpful.
