Replying to @thomasfuchs@hachyderm.io
@thomasfuchs I have been programming in cloud and large distributed systems for, at this point, two thirds of my career.
On a whim, I looked up two jobs at other companies with very similar technical needs to my own.
Each of them is using a family of tools I have never heard of before to do the same job.
Each are using different tools from each other.
You'd better believe I'm leaping into the machine that knows how to build analogies between them. Because I don't want to be rendered less useful by the churn. And not only can I not stop the churn... I probably shouldn't. The solution isn't to shut down the bazaar.
But the bazaar encourages diversity at the expense of simplicity.
