Jason Gorman @jasongorman.bsky.social · 16/01/2026You call it "over-engineering" when devs make software more complicated than it needs to be. But simpler solutions often require *more* thought. Complexity's easy. You just keep typing. That's why I call over-complicating "under-engineering". 5155
David Cornelson @david-cornelson.bsky.social · 16/01/2026I still remember from 2008 to 2015 a lot of archs were forcing dependency injection into simple systems and drove me nuts. They were insisting it was a foundation for all software. I ranted about complexity and said “It fucking depends!” I still think about that. 010
Pachi @facilethings.com · 16/01/2026totally agreed. over-engineering is what you to need to simplify processes 000
Aidan Harding @aidanharding.eurosky.social · 16/01/2026Overworked, like dough. Dense and unappetising. 000
