The World Has Changed, and We Need To Adapt The world has gone through a tremendous transformation in the last fifteen years. Cloud and microservices changed the world. Previously, our application was using one database; developers knew how it worked, and the deployment rarely happened. A single database administrator was capable of maintaining the database, optimizing the queries, and making sure things worked as expected.

At the time of writing, 99.9% of pages on the web include at least one image. The median image-weight per page landed at 881KB in 2022 , which is more than HTML, CSS, JS, and fonts combined! And while images do not block rendering (unless you do something silly ), it’s important to consider how we offer a reasonably pleasant experience while users are waiting for images to load.

A few weeks ago, I saw a tweet that said “Writing code isn’t the problem. Controlling complexity is.” I wish I could remember who said that; I will be quoting it a lot in the future. That statement nicely summarizes what makes software development difficult. It’s not just memorizing the syntactic details of some programming language, or the many functions in some API, but understanding and managing the complexity of the problem you’re trying to solve.
