This is very interesting. One data point for this are the standards for medical device compliance (e.g. for medical software). You can buy them from different institutions, the content is the same, but the price varies from anywhere between

As jtwaleson already correctly replied (thanks!), we're based in Germany and are mostly focused on EU regulations. The "good" news is that if you gain regulatory approval within the EU you can bring your device to market in a

This is so cool, I didn't know about it! In spirit, in reminds me of Arachne [1][2] which somewhat sold a similar vision of "let's build a cool web framework for Clojure", and it also gained quite a lot of traction. Even

When hiring / recruiting Clojure devs, there are quite a few second-order effects which are quite unintuitive. Clojure devs are much more senior - they've typically been burnt by at least one tech stack, often more (Java, JS + Rea

I agree with you, partially. Yes, the short-term financial implications (cost of standards) are minor compared to cost of employees and consultants (source: I am a consultant). However, non-free standards have a gazillion second-order effec

It is: - You need to purchase multiple standards (at least 4). - In theory, you need to purchase a multi-user license if more than one person should be allowed to read the pdf in your company (hint: nobody purchases the multi-user license).

Finally this is getting some attention. Somewhat related, Healthcare startups are struggling with this because the standards they have to comply with (for developing medical software) cost up to 280 EUR (for a pdf!). [1] One common workarou

Thanks for sharing - it takes a lot to share these sort of personal experiences. I've definitely been there, too. Aside from all the good and valid comments about reducing scope and shipping an MVP, I'd like to raise another point

Agree, an interesting observation! I wonder: Junior developers nowadays who learn JS and React as their first, go-to stack for web development, they haven't ever experienced the raw productivity of "just write php and upload it vi
