> Keeping engineers fungible and cheap to hire & train is a priority for enterprise software divisions. Software ecosystems that rely on the patience and curiosity of developers to explore an uncoordinated constellation of packages and design their own architecture (eg; Java, React ecosystems) can be suboptimal. I can't help but feel this is a cleverly worded put down of Enterprise software developers. Having worked on both sides of fence, there are significantly differences but it mostly comes down to the type of end product rather than whether developers are "fungible and cheap". For example, at the company I work for now we develop at least 12 different fully deployed products year. When I worked for a startup, we developed a single product over 5-10 years. Most modern frameworks are definitely geared more to the latter than the former. Blazer is definitely not geared for the single highly optimized application. But I could definitely see using it to get much better results for our internal applications with much less effort. We could probably absorb the run-time cost. |
