The Case for Boring Technology
Every team has a limited budget of innovation tokens. Spend them on the one thing that actually differentiates your product, and use proven, boring tools for everything else.
A new framework promises speed today and a migration project in two years. The teams that move fastest long-term are usually the ones with the least exotic stack.
Boring doesn't mean bad. It means predictable failure modes, a large community when something breaks, and engineers who can be productive on day one.
