I don’t want to go ad personam on the blog author - but checking his socials he is not really experienced person. I don’t think we have anything to discuss here. He seems just to want to do cool stuff and his drop of databases seems to be because he just doesn’t know a lot of stuff there is to know. I applaud attempt and might be that his needs will be covered by what he is doing. But for everyone else yes, pick boring technology if you want to do startup because technology shouldn’t be hard or something you worry about if you are making web applications.

  Well he is not Kent Beck or Jon Skeet, Martin Fowler - that is what I call experienced to take seriously a blog post. Just working at Meta/Google doesn’t impress me much just like Shania Twain would sing.

    > he is not Kent Beck or Jon Skeet, Martin Fowler Just FYI, you are (perhaps unintentionally) showing your lack of experience. There are many thousands of brilliant engineers for every brilliant engineer who also is a author/speaker/publisher. These are very different skills. Also, perhaps the author _is_ the next Martin Fowler? You never know...

According to LinkedIn: - Masters in CS from UPenn - 1 year as SWE at Google - 6 years as SWE at FB/Meta - 6 years running his own company When I hear "not really experienced," I think recent college grad, not someone with a Master's and 15 years of industry experience.

  Well that’s only 7y of working with people to learn from, it’s not nothing but it’s not enough credentials to make me go from “it’s a horrible idea” to “I must be missing something”
