The problem is not with the devs but with the investors I believe. They're looking for unicorns, unicorns attract million of customers, so they need to work at scale, hence microservices.
- hobs 3y agoWell, in the previous cycle it was clear that the investors were looking for buzzwords and marketing hype because they often don't understand and frankly dont care - they just wanted to make you look good enough to sell to the next guy, as they were all assuming you were unprofitable in and unprofitable out. They all just want a story that you are going to be the next google so they can sell that story to the next guy. Will that hold in the non zero interest rate world? The AI hype doesn't make me think the world has changed that much.
