The case for boring
It is always tempting to use the latest and greatest technology, but reality, reliability often trumps novelty.
- If it works, stick with it.
- Depend on technology that has proven itself in production.
- Think twice before adopting new technology.
- Always consider: will this technology still work after 10 years? If not, it's not a good choice.
- Eg;Javascript . Internet runs on Javascript. Chance of Javscript existing in 10 years is super high. Same with Postgres
- With coding agents, it is useful to have a solid foundation in boring technology.
