The Grug Brained Developer
Developers talk about reducing/avoiding complexity all the time. And yet the very same developers keep making things more complex. I am starting to realize that most developers don't understand what complexity is. So they say crazy things like "microservices are less complex than monoliths". And they actually believe it! When I then step by step show them that microservices are actually objectively more complex than a well designed monolith they agree with every step of my explanation but somehow still don't get it. Very strange.
