These days the cost of a programmer is probably a lot greater than the cost of execution, so some of these rules ("prefer polymorphism") are likely worth the tradeoff.
- CyberDildonics 4y agoCost of execution to who? If you don't care about the speed of your program when I execute it, we end up with electron based VPN GUIs that have menus that run at a few frames per second or electron based disk formatters that are a 400 MB download to ultimately run a command line process. If you don't care about execution speed, I don't want to use it.
- gumby 4y agoThe large number of electron apps demonstrates that most companies don’t really care about the customer. But even on the back end, companies seem willing to scale cloud costs rather than make the lumpy and “risky” investment in hiring. I don’t agree with it but I see it everywhere.
