I think the problem is it's still difficult to connect LLMs to the apps.

DHH: Make software simple again Software industry has become more driven by profit and unnecessary complexity that by the ability to build and launch innovative products.

I see more and more unnecessary complexity every day. I may not agree with all statements, but overall it's so much true.

My idea of a perfect weekend? Coffee, a good book, and not thinking about that bug I couldn’t fix on Friday. Let’s see how long that lasts. 😅

I met an old friend today. We once worked on a monolith refactor where the team tried to extract everything into microservices all at once. It was chaos. The takeaway? Gradual, deliberate decomposition works far better than an all-at-once approach. Break things down thoughtfully.

One of the most underrated skills in software engineering is deleting code. Letting go is an act of discipline. That was a good one ;(
