You are in the business of doing a thing, not having an aesthetically pleasing tech architecture.

It is true that having a nice tech stack can make doing your thing easier, but it can also distract you from doing your thing well.

Very good summary. I was going to write a similar thing.

Tech stack is important but (customer) money in the bank is importanter.

Your daily reminder that FB started with PHP. Ship and sell first, the rest can be done later (yes your customer doesn't care that you rewrote your backend to use nanoservices in Go deployed to hundreds of lambda functions).
