Dear Developer, the Web Isn't About You
&gt; We’re back to building sites that are not for everyone - huge, bloated sites, running fragile imperative code on the users local device. We have started to explicitly say &quot;I think you should have this level of tech, processing power, and bandwidth before I think you&#x27;re eligible to use my site&quot;.<p>This isn&#x27;t in and of itself the problem, per se. Sometimes a more powerful and robust UI &#x2F; UX &#x2F; application is necessary. The problem is when said &quot;solution&quot; is applied to __every__ need. The problem is, when screwdrivers are being used to pund nails.<p>Much &quot;like publish of perish&quot; there&#x27;s no (ego) glory in saying &quot;Yeah. It&#x27;s relatively lo-tech but that&#x27;s the solution that best fit the business need.&quot; Rare is praise and&#x2F;or hiring based on good analysis, appropriate tools and smart solutions. Nah. Size is all that matters. How people who can&#x27;t do what you do it more important than doing the right thing(s).
