I feel like there is a huge divide among developers on social media. Many are true innovators that create new things and have heated debates over each small component. It's exciting to read.
The rest of us quietly maintain those innovations 15 years later with duct tape and prayers to the search gods, keeping the current internet spinning.
Both groups are needed, but maintainers tend to get overlooked.
A toast to the roadside mechanics of the internet.
