and another CTO will use this meme as a reason to "just use Postgres" for far longer than they should lmao

I’ll take “just use Postgres” over “prematurely add three new systems” any day. Complexity has a cost too.

Using Postgres too long is probably less harmful than adding unnecessary complexity too early

  • It probably is, but I don't like to operate as if I will inevitably make giant mistakes. Sometimes there isn't a trade off - you can just be good lolol.

    Both are pretty bad.
