Many of them are fresh out of code bootcamps. I'm uninterested in subsidising poor education an laziness. Ops is hard. Computers are hard.
- asynchronous 3y agoOps is hard as heck especially if you have any sort of odd networking requirements. I know dozens of devs that don’t know one thing about networking and would struggle in that field.
- anotherhue 3y agoThe author is correct of course, which is why the big techs have built a way of turning junior devs into productivity. The cost of those platforms (the borgs, the chubbys, the map reduces) is stratospheric compared to what a startup should be focusing on. If you want to go somewhere new (as most startups do) you're not going to find a paved road to bring you there. You can ignore architecture but it won't ignore you.
