When is the world of software going to wake up? All programming languages suck, in one way or another. All frontend/backend paradigms suck, in one way or another. This constant churn of new, new, new is a waste. It gets replaced every few years, meaning all the time, effort and money sucked into it is gone. And engineers re-learn the same lessons over, and over, and over again. All so software engineers can be happy, because they just like doing new things in newly complicated ways. It's like changing how we build houses every few years just for fun, with no benefit to the people eventually living in that home. We're definitely not saving them money or building them any faster.
