Does nobody ever think of trying more than one technology? It’s like people buying a car based on what everyone else is driving rather than actually driving different cars.
- voiper1 2mo agoOnly do one new thing at a time. Don't drive a new car, using new a new type of engine, with a new type of steering wheel, with a new type of entertainment system, .... all at once. WHEN something goes wrong it will be intense trying to figure it out.
- grebc 2mo agoGood question. Highly likely to not get any other replies as it’s too much uncommon sense.
- Cthulhu_ 2mo agoSure, that's what the POC stage of choosing technology is about if you can't make a decision on blurbs on websites or comparison tables.
- interf4ce 2mo agoI think you're conflating general "boringness" with tech-specific features. Test driving solutions is useful but it tells you nothing about reliability. Say it's 2012 and you need a new car. Toyota Corollas have generally proven to be incredibly reliable. The Tesla Model S is brand new: definitely not boring. On paper both meet your needs, so you test drive both. The Tesla is way more fun to drive, and that's appealing, but if you just want your car to work for a long time with predictable maintenance, you should take the Corolla.
