> I have my own company developing products. Some for our own, some for clients. I count my money. Why would I give a flying fuck about what is "hip"? You are a minority in a sea of crap whose only goal is to extract more money from investors by dazzling them with buzzwords, "growth & engagement" and engineering playgrounds where complexity is a feature to justify hiring more engineers and make an engineering blog to brag about solving (self-inflicted) problems in order to help hire more engineers. When your objective is to make money by solving clients' problems as opposed to dazzling investors to then beg for their money, the "bill of materials" changes significantly.
