Microservices are what happens when your organization has communication problems and you decide the architecture should have them too.

This. I’ve seen microservices built for a single UI “just in case” or “for scalability”. Too often microservices are a form of resume driven development.

Microservices is the software industry’s most successful confidence scam. It convinces small teams that they are “thinking big” while systematically destroying their ability to move at all. It flatters ambition by weaponizing insecurity: if you’re not running a constellation of…

You're running Kubernetes for 3 microservices and 500 users. Run Docker Compose on a single server instead. K8s costs you 40 hours/week in maintenance for zero business value. Your $5 VPS would handle this traffic for the next 3 years. Stop cosplaying as Google.

We didn't specifically hire Guido to add static type checking to Python. He initially worked on the Dropbox Datastores API. The inability to refactor large Python codebases did become a massive problem though, and we ended up rewriting Dropbox infra in Go and some in Rust.

Dropbox benefited a lot from being able to iterate fast as a Python shop. We even prototyped the initial version of the storage system in Python. Python performs surprisingly well for IO-bound workloads. Your architecture matters more than your language. Eventually we rewrote…

Would you say writing the intitial codebase in Python a benefit for iteration speed?
