Marco RogersI don't think I'll ever understand the kind of person who says "you MUST fight with me about technology minutia. And if you choose not to, I will block you forever." Like it's such a weird combination of principles.
There are lots of different reasons that my career in tech has been effectively derailed. But first and foremost, I definitely failed to make talking about tech into my entire personality. That has been working against me for a long time. 😂
That's not meant to be a judgment towards people who talk about tech a lot. I used to enjoy talking about it too. Even the minutia. I think what changed for me is that I started to ask where it was leading to. And I couldn't form a coherent answer that mattered to me.
I believe in the promise that tech is meant to enhance human potential and improve human experience. I want to be able to talk about tech in the context of what we are hoping to achieve.
The subtweet (or whatever we're calling it over here) at the top of this thread was referring to a brief exchange about frontend web technology. I'm already on record with my opinion that we've lost our way in the frontend. Most of the conversations are about how to add more complexity in order to make things slightly more convenient for devs. Very few conversations have anything to do with what we hope to create for people.

There should be no shame in recognizing that there are two kinds of developers:
those who like to write code
those who like to build things
The writers are happy to reimplement the same project with subtle changes over and over again. It doesn't really matter to them what the code does.
The builders prefer to solve problems, improve quality and increase layers of abstraction. (think of @simon )
