Anon is an imposter
(sh.itjust.works)
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
That's because they're back end devs. There is one way to do things, you learn the one way to do the thing, you do it that way, you're done.
The fun is in front end, there is 15 different ways of doing things, but you don't like any of them, so you develop a 16th way, eventually you get bored of the 16th way so come up with a 17th way. Eventually you get sick of all of this and go back to SSGs as God intended.
There’s a perfect way to do anything in frontend but only on the dev’s one computer. Everyone else will get garbage.
The one correct way to do back-end is obviously to have lots of microservices all talking to a shared database so they can take each other down and also they’re never updated because you’d need about 10x the devs you have to maintain all of them. I know this because that’s everywhere I’ve worked for over a decade.
