The main reply was to use more things off the shelf, or at least be aware there is a business cost of not doing so. Ironically this blog post isn’t even targeted at developers but more management types, but it wouldn’t be life without being spectacularly wrong on HN and raked over the coals on it. In short though I agree it’s not like you can just use off the shelf for everything or that that is even a good idea to try as that has its own set of problems.
