Unless the market is big, most employers give zero incentive to accumulate domain knowledge. Between learning the new hot framework and accruing domain knowledge, one is clearly better for the average dev's career.
The advice is great in a world where people remotely cared about good software and are willing to pay for it. Not such great advice for reality.
- gremlinunderway 3y agoyup. theres way too much stock put on "best practices" driven by the biggest corps as if whatever they're doing must be good. Agile and MVP development is my favourite example. "race as fast as possible with no documentation to build the shittiest piece of software that bamboozles your customers into continuing to pay you because otherwise they wouldnt have the patience to wait for good engineering" It "works" only in a market client-vendor relationship, but the "works" part has nothing to do with leading towards good software development.
