Modern backend systems have reached a level of complexity that organizations struggle to wield. Many find themselves in a constant cycle of hiring, reorganization and reprioritization in order to better align themselves with that complexity.Simplicity won’t be found at the end of the infrastructure-platform journey, instead it reaches an incremental yet cyclical steady-state of streamlined complexity. Breaking the cycle requires a paradigm shift in how cloud development is approached.| Klotho
Probably the single best thing to happen to me in my career was having had Kellan placed in charge of me. I stuck around long enough to see Kellan’s technical decisionmaking start to bear fruit. I learned a great deal from this, but I also learned a great deal as a result of this. I would not have been free to become the engineer that wrote Data Driven Products Now! if Kellan had not been there to so thoroughly stick the landing on technology choices.| Dan McKinley :: Math, Programming, and Minority Reports
