Very cool article. Semantics are important and key. Article nails it.

Reduce, reduce, and then reduce farther.

I'll add my 2c: Ditch the cargo cults. Biggest problem in software dev. I say this 30 years in.

Hard lesson for any young engineers: You don't need X, Y, or Z. It's already been invented. Stop re-inventing. Do so obsessively. You don't GraphQL. You don't need NoSQL. Downvote away.

Pick a language, pick a database, get sleep.

Never trust the mass thought. Cargo culting is world destroying.
