Why I Hate Frameworks (2005)
I don't get it. I assume the author is trying to make it sound absurd that you would need all these layers of factories to build a simple spice rack and, by analogy, that frameworks are also absurd.<p>But if you were building spice racks at scale, of course you would build them in a factory! And you'd use machinery made in other factories. And those factories would have tools and machines made in yet other factories.<p>That's why you can go to Amazon or Wayfair or the Container Store and find 100 different spice racks for less than $30, and why nobody builds a spice rack by hand, except for fun.
