Hi Sam, great post. Completely agree.

One additional problem I've also observed about tools is a desire to use the latest technologies just for the sake of it.

I'd personally much rather a well-architected, well-written solution in a slightly older stack than a hap-hazardly thrown together project in the latest tech.

Yup! Trying something because you read about it or saw it at a conference is fine on your own project, but suggesting its the best because the newest tends to be more wrong than not
