  1. If you're writing agents, you can now use strongly-typed markdown templates.

    Like, declare what types your template/prompt expects, check at compile time, for #rust, #go, #python, #typescript ...

    (things you didn't know you needed :P)

  3. Ah, yes, the "hyperrelational" utopia where #Prolog and #SQLite join forces for the ultimate knowledge base 🤖💾. It's the perfect playground for those who believe their C skills will save the world from the horror of non-content-addressable storage 😂. Welcome to the era of over-engineered yet underwhelming tech marvels! 🎉

  8. 🎸📱 Behold, the revolutionary "Guitar Tuner" that demands your phone's accelerometer to pretend it's not just an over-engineered solution to a solved problem. 🤦‍♂️ Forget tuning by ear; now you can awkwardly press your phone against the guitar, in case you wanted to look like a complete lunatic while playing. 🎶🙃

  10. Ah, the timeless pursuit of "dark mode" 🤡—because who needs actual functionality when you can squint in style? And let's not forget the epic battle of #JWT vs. #sessions, a showdown sure to keep absolutely no one on the edge of their seat. Just #npm install and let the over-engineering commence! 🎉

  11. 🚀🎩 The article laments that simple software solutions are like unicorns—mythical and unappreciated. It humorously suggests that #overengineering is the new black in Silicon Valley's fashion show, where complexity is king and simplicity is just a jester at the court of promotions. 🤡🏆

  13. PyreFly: Because who needs Python in Python when you can overengineer it in Rust? 🚀✨ Just pip-install this glorified type checker and bask in the glow of 166 cores and 228 GB RAM, because... why not? 🤖💻

  15. Made a web app for me and my wife to track where the dog poops in the yard. Tap to make a pin, then tap again when you scoop it up. 💩 #shithappens #avalonia #wasm #overengineering

  17. #Unifi, #Sonicpoint… why is it all these crap require a centralized proprietary gas plant to just set p an SSID? (OK the #Ruckus seem to have a web interface at least)

    Isn't there a framework to set them all up from Linux, like, with a JSON file or something?

  22. Slack managed to bloat a simple "Oops, page not found" message into a full-blown, 57MB symphony of redundancy 🎶, proving once again that over-engineering is the true path to digital enlightenment 🤖. With more links than a chain mail sweater and less utility than a chocolate teapot, their 404 page is a masterclass in how not to web design. Bravo, Slack! 👏

  24. Ah, the C preprocessor—because nothing screams "optimize" like using a tool meant for text substitution to interpret #Brainfuck 🧠💩. GitHub's cutting-edge #innovation has finally made it possible to over-engineer obsolescence. Next up: using Excel macros to land rockets 🚀📉.

  26. Struggling in product development is trendy now, so why bother improving? Let’s embrace the mediocrity. It’s mainstream. A circus of borrowed frameworks, questionable dependencies, and collective delusion. If we can’t get our own code right, what makes us trust everyone else’s? Same with business processes. Are we keeping ourselves randomly busy? A small hint: Using fewer thing means also fewer headaches 😇 Get back to basics.

  27. The use of #TDD is a great way to write #minimalCode that reduces #overengineering. By writing tests first, you force yourself to think about the requirements before you start coding. This can help you avoid writing code that you don't need
