That sounds more like survivorship bias, startups typically fail over things such as product market fit, running out of cash, not how well the stack operates.

- papito 3y agoOne way to run out of cash is to hire 50 expensive devs to build a microservices hairball with Kafkas and all the latest toys, as opposed to having 5 devs just knock it out, faster and better, with a single Python app and a Postgres database. We used to build real-scale systems with a stack of this kind when we had fewer features and less CPU power.
