One File Microservice Pattern

One File Microservice Pattern

The bell curve of developer intelligence strikes again! This meme shows the classic horseshoe theory of programming wisdom: both the blissfully ignorant junior (IQ 55) and the enlightened senior architect (IQ 145) agree that single-file microservices are the way to go. Meanwhile, the mid-level developers with their "Hexagonal Architecture, DDD, Layers of Responsibility" are sweating bullets trying to impress everyone with overcomplicated design patterns.

It's the circle of developer life - you start by writing spaghetti code in one file because you don't know better, then you discover "best practices" and create 47 interfaces for a CRUD app, and finally you realize that simplicity was the answer all along. The true galaxy brain move is calling your 2000-line Python script a "microservice" and deploying it to production on Friday afternoon.
