Because your dipshit Director, who came from a consulting firm like BCG or McKenzie and who couldn’t manage to throw together a “Hello, world” script in python now believes he is an expert in all tech because he read a medium article by a boot camp grad of some 8 week React course and thinks that giving Palantir Foundry $3 million a year to do basic ETL that was done previously by a couple junior devs is somehow “safer” than “writing custom code”, and by “custom code” I mean utilizing Apache Spark, Polars, and other open source tooling that Palantir Foundry is also utilizing, but charging you 40,000% more to use.

you ever get the feeling that programming has gotten way too overbloated? that good old fashioned engineering has been buried under miles of industry standards, best practices, enterprise services, business methodologies, and managers trying to justify their paychecks?

feels like a giant bubble way too overdue for a needle.
