Once tried to stop a small aircraft from rolling against a car. Upon impact the vibration in the wing knocked me over.

Next time I’ll let it crash and enjoy the show.

I’m scared. To have 600+ tabs open like this…

This! Software engineering suggests a certain professionalism wich unfortunately is hard to find. From an accessibility point of view I am simply not able to participate in these cowboy style events for I do not have the mental capacity to do so. Ironically I have been able to work more effectively than others by focussing on quality.

Coincidentally I published some of my work earlier this week. It’s an opinionated library dictating the structure of your core domain. In return it completely decouples infrastructure. This way you do not really have to touch infra at all during day to day operations, which simplifies things immensely! As the domain exists at the very core of most software projects, it greatly impacts the way everything else is designed as well.

Most modern software is way too complex for what it actually does.

Can you explain?

I spent years writing an abstraction to be able to write shorter code… Not sure whether that was worth it 😅
