Most interesting things in software engineering are (laughably) subjective.

Just check out any conversation on dynamic vs static typing, talk to a Rust zealot, or ask a backend engineer if microservices were a mistake.

It's unfortunate, and it makes it hard to have proper discussions on these subjects. It would be worthwhile to figure out how we can have more constructive arguments.

Thanks very much for saying this!

Frankly, it feels like we should just sidestep arguments entirely and just all contribute our messy data/reports, and then see how we can meld all of it together, to find the best answers for our individual situations.

Probably a good use of frontier AI, melding all of that!
