Man I’d love it if our backend teams were that willing to make changes for us. So often I stumble across bizarre, complicated business logic in our various client code bases and ask the devs “why is this here? surely this is better put on the backend/already exists on the backed” and am greeted with “we agree, but when we asked the backend teams to make a change on their end they told us it would be done in the next year or two”.
- vikingcaffiene 6y agoThat’s aggravating. I do full stack dev and work at startups so that particular scenario hasn’t come up but I could see how that disconnect could create some tech debt. That said, I think it’s a planning process problem. You really should have someone on your project capable of making those changes. People really are the hardest problem.
