Private methods generally are a code smell anyway. If you have dozens of private methods in your class, something is probably wrong in your general design.

This is way oversimplified. You can build a completely static website with NextJS. What I love about it is that you can do everything : SSR by default, SSG as an option, and awesome features like ISR etc. However, the way NextJS implements

Juste use Firebase/Auth0/anything else. What a I missing ?

I completely disagree with the general sentiment here, this is still very relevant today, misunderstood, and much needed in many codebases.

Doesn't NextJS solve this ?

Exactly. If you're big enough, these tools are fine. The thing is 99% of companies are small. Like, really small. Today, 50k users is really small.

You're not alone. I lost it. Microservices, k8s, Terraform, etc. I don't understand my industry anymore. 99% of the time, they're completely useless and add a ton of complexity to the project. Just sheep, junior mentality. Yo

"Exterior design and heavy marketing is their sales strategy" this is old, boring and not even true.

These are minor inconveniences relative to the massive benefits all these techniques bring to your codebase. "Go to implementation" shortcut is a thing and solves the first 2. "One assert per test" -> just test one &q

I guess it heavily depends on the person. I got a huge boost of motivation and energy to launch something when I got my first kid. I guess it's the opposite for others.

Agreed. Push all external dependencies (DBs, APIs, etc) to the edge. That's it ! Why do you need a functional core though ? You can use decoupled classes and an ioc container that does the wiring for you.

So messaging services must be "inclusive" now ? What is that supposed to mean

100% this, same for microservices. One of the most damaging belief a developer can have is "if my stack looks like * insert unicorn *'s stack, we will be a unicorn"

Depends on the state of the culture. It has to be at least "fixable" with somewhat open-minded people at the top. There are 10x more people who try to fix cultures but end up burning out and being a scapegoat for everything.

I think most of us, senior included, SEVERELY underestimate the cost of having a deeply fragmented stack. I believe having 1 or 2 max vendors, providing most of your services, is immensely beneficial in the long run, for many reasons. cf h

This whole thing will never end, will it ? Should we be prepared to live with masks, mandatory vaccination, QR codes and worse for the rest of our lives ?
