At this point the bad guys are the good guys. React, Kubernetes, and Go are A) paid for by B) really popular because of Facebook and Google. The only question I have is if the bad guys will stop being the good guys (aka funding OSS ).

Haven't looked into Go too deeply, but React and Kubernetes are toxic technologies. Their strategic purpose is to disempower indie devs and small enterprises, who have no say in what the "new normal" is.

Wut? ...You're ...gonna need to defend that assertion. Just because BigCo's tooling is fit for BigCo's purpose does not mean they set out to harm smaller devs.

You don't turn a bicycle for the mind into a monorail for the soul without doing some serious, respectable engineering, of the kind you and I will probably never be let anywhere near.

I'm putting this on a poster and hanging it on my wall. Thank you.

Perhaps it's not their purpose, but it is their effect.

Devs never had a say in what the new normal is except what they choose to use.

I'm not a fan of React and use svelte. But I think k8s is way better than non-k8s, so I use it for client work.
