> Start thinking for yourselves, ditch this shit before it’s too late and learn how to write some actual fucking code. The information is out there, you can do it. If you need handholding with factories and providers and service provider factories then consider that the world doesn’t need your bullshit code and go and get a job you’re actually good at. Stop ruining it for the rest of us.

It's unfortunate that this post was written in a provocative manner with a very inflammatory tone, because once you look past its rant-y nature, I think it raises an interesting argument.

From what I could tell, the gist of the post seems to be that instead of relying on someone else's pre-made, out-of-the-box general framework solution (which you have to heavily configure to your specific needs, and is so complicated that you end up needing to hire highly trained consultants), you can create simpler, more elegant solutions simply by writing them yourself from scratch.

I'm not going to agree nor disagree with that argument, I'm only trying to state what I think the gist of it is.
