Why do you say so? It’s not that complex what Deno is doing (though I am not sure the complexity is needed over SQLite with replication).

Explains how ServiceNow can be so popular yet so awful. They sell to the IT department who staffs up a team of solution architects and lock themselves in. Usability of the software be dammed (it took years before even urls were shareable).

The Oakland example at the end laments the 350M spent by Oakland. That works out to 1k a person or $33 a year. It’s a lot of money but it should definitely be put in context around length of stadium longevity and size of population.

I still don't understand the focus on making a model substantially "safer" than what a simple google search will return. While there are obvious red lines (that search engines don't cross either), techniques for shop lif

Agreed, I think. Does his framework include a measure of output too by looking at ROI? So if you are able to deliver more effectively, that should increase ROI independently of whether you reduce the amount of muda time.

This isn’t architect level planning. Even a junior developer should be able to work from vague requirements and build a mental like that.
