Healthy skepticism is necessary for any technologist. However, you do have to use it in both directions. I know my biases are that I prefer new technology to old. So I pay attention to that. However, it is just as bad to reflexively consign something as premature or ill-considered. Sometimes the collective hegemony gets it right. They may have missed on microservices but they didn't miss on the cloud really. I do try to be eclectic in my technology choices if only for cognitive reasons.
