Grandma dev isn't wrong. Modern "software engineering" is often just gluing together 47 npm packages and hoping nothing breaks after the next update. Remember when we actually designed systems instead of just importing half of GitHub? Those were the days when UML diagrams weren't just decorations for PowerPoint presentations and "technical debt" meant more than "I'll fix it later" (narrator: they never did). The old guard remembers when optimization meant squeezing performance out of every byte, not just throwing more AWS instances at the problem.
