Throwing more bodies at a situation does NOT solve the situation faster or more efficiently; seriously, this shit is the most remedial, 101-level shit in pretty much any field where man-hours are a measuring metric.
If you want a good back end that isn’t bloated you can’t use cheap contractors or junior engineers - you need someone who knows what they’re doing.
It’s a fight I’m constantly fighting at work. They finally dropped all the super cheap contractors that were trying to hard code a list of 20 identical entries that differed only by a single field. The contractors who thought the peak of architectural design was decomposition of any method more than 5 lines long into confusingly named functions that had an additional 10 layers of decomposition to them. The cheap contractors who thought that documentation was a waste of time and that the code was “self documenting”.
These contractors weren’t paid to care - I don’t blame them for phoning it in. But if you want a system to work well and be cheap to run you pay your engineers well or inspire such devotion that FOSS is possible.
But the fact is the overwhelming majority of large, optimized and successful FOSS is funded by megacorps

It’s almost like he pluralized something implying “go get more”. I’m not playing semantic gymnastics with you tech"bro" ballbags this morning

Expensive engineers is a category dipshit.
You add an S to a noun in English to show it’s a category or grouping instead of a specific individual.

Either way, it’s expensive.

That’s not what I said or even remotely implied.

Unfortunately, there are expensive engineers who think the same 😦 I don’t know how they pass technical interviews or probationary periods.

Definitely - hiring isn’t easy.
But you’ll never get value for money from engineers who don’t care, and you have a 0% chance of a cheap contractor caring.
Again - I don’t blame them. They shouldn’t care. The company clearly doesn’t respect them.
But it’s a false economy.
True. Some people aren’t paid enough to care 👍
Is that a typo or a term I don’t know?

Not a typo - a false economy is a decision that saves money in the short term but wastes more than it saves in the long term.
Thank you, learned something new!

Reading comprehension: you lack it.
Seriously, you can’t have nine pregnant women and expect one baby in one month.
