Thanks for your reply.

I think I am contradictory when it comes to software : I don't enjoy maintaining something that breaks all the time: dependencies, system upgrades, deployment scripts and things that aren't 100% working reliably every time.

So my ideal system is to run a simple binary against a file or SQLite database and have it work reliably everytime. Not a complicated micro service architecture with lots of indirection and keep things running on network.

But balancing this with my hobby of designing multithreaded software.

Life would be so boring if we made everything flawless, we must find ways to spice it up whenever we feel like it's going too well.

I have a friend like that: loves pure functional programming languages; day job? jack of all trades doing buses communication systems ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
