This comment is another example of "Nobody ever gets credit for fixing problems that never happened."
There's a massive push to add unnecessary complexity to everything out there, because complexity pays all our bills.
- dofm 2mo agoOh I don't disagree. I'm not saying it's wrong. It's always right at some point in the cycle. I'm just saying it is cyclical. Databases => plain text => single-file databases, repeat. shared hosting => dedicated hosting => vms => jamstack, repeat, etc. Can't sell complexity without oversimplicity or simplicity without overcomplexity. But this is quite a long blog post, with typical blog flourishes, about not very much.
