Ben, I can't believe you forgot about all the awesome tech I'm planning to use in my new project to be the Uber for Star Trek action figure interactions.

We have so much amazing tech going into this project I'm sure I'll miss something but here are the highlights:

  • we are going to write the back end in Rust and Go
  • we heard that monoliths are so 2010 so we are going all in on containers. Every. Function. In. Its. Own. Container.
  • the front end will be transpiled into JavaScript from a new language that nobody's heard of yet and nobody will remember three years from now
  • we'll be 6g compatible (President Trump is helping us with that one)
  • we are going to use all the acronyms: DDD, TDD, BDD, etc.
  • BLOCK CHAIN, baby! It'll solve all our problems
  • Gpus are out. We'll do all our AI on purpose built chips
  • we're developing our own line of self driving cars to get the action figures to our customers with a minimum of human involvement. So, of course, we'll need some serious deep learning, computer vision, machine learning, etc. It's a little out of the norm for a software project but it will be worth it. We expect to offer full autonomy but the end of the year

It's going to be glorious!

Functions in a container is soooo last year. Everybody knows that you should actually put containers in functions instead. Serverless docker images running stateless is the way forward.

(I’m actually creating a service that will auto generate 16 page rebuttals of any given technology choice, with full details of why it can’t possibly work and why you should do it my way - it’s going to be such a hit!)

Totally agree. We're going to throw everything out and start over with serverless docker images running stateless--I can't believe I didn't see that myself.

Your project sounds cool. If you could work in an IOT angle, you could probably cash in for 7 figures in a couple of years.

I’m going for the exitless exit. I don’t actually sell anything and a million bucks appears in my bank account. It’s going to be the next big thing!
