- simonw 9mo agoTotally. I have dozens of "simple CLI tools" that I work on - and small plugins, and HTML+JavaScript utilities. If I was hacking on the Linux kernel I would be delighted with myself for producing 40 lines of landed code in a single day.
- eikenberry 9mo agoThey are obviously talking about writing code against expectations greater than these simple tools. Why troll with the hyperbole?
- simonw 9mo agoI don't actually think the CLI tools and JavaScript apps I work on are particularly "simple". I think they're the level of complexity that most developers spend effectively all of their time building. Kernel / database / systems engineers are a pretty rare breed.
