Hills I have chosen to die on:
REST is not SQL over HTTP
Microservices is not HTTP over Docker
Agile is not Scrum
DevOps is not a tool, position, title, or department
AC/DCs music is not good

"Microservices are hard, do modular monoliths instead!"
OK but one of the hardest parts of building microservices is defining the boundaries, and those boundaries will be similar/identical in a modular monolith

people people people
do NOT unit tests your controllers
do NOT write mock-heavy tests for dependencies you control
do NOT write tests that couple to internal implementation details
we should have learned this 10 years ago

not many people know this but the reason AutoMapper is slow is because of the crypto mining it does with every map 😎🤑

“Feature branches” vs trunk-based development is a straw man.
Branch lifetime is a primary indicator of integration difficulty.
Keep stories small, branches are short. Attack the disease, not the symptom

more free advice: if you want to be a microservices expert, focus on messaging and integration patterns, not containerization and docker. latter are just possible implementation patterns

When you eliminate duplication you introduce coupling. Always tradeoffs.

hot take: the DDD structural patterns (entities, aggregates, repositories etc) have done more harm than good
just ENDLESS bike shedding about "this cant do that" "this cant reference that" with no connection to delivering value

No AutoMapper?? How dare.
Here are 9 excellent libraries I use in my projects:
1. MediatR
2. Polly
3. EF Core
4. Refit
5. Testcontainers
6. MassTransit
7. Marten
8. xUnit
9. Dapper
Which library would you add to the list?

People, it’s not that complicated:
REST is an architecture style to expose your SQL database as HTTP.
GraphQL is a protocol to expose your MongoDB as HTTP.
Duh.

current project is moving away from RPC-style microservices to event-driven, and it's amazing how much simpler the picture gets
going from ~100 "microservices" to around a dozen where the boundaries are much more explicit

It’s OK to unfollow/block someone with hateful views, that’s not creating an echo chamber. Plenty of room for discourse and disagreement without the noise of hate.
“But he’s a founder of agile!” Yes, and....? When someone shows you who they are, believe them.

unit testing with in-memory (or mocked) databases is ultimately a bad idea since you're going to run the integration test with a real database anyway

when folks say CQRS is complex and over-architected, they've been sold on some super complex variant. I use CQRS on the vaaaast majority of projects because it is such a simple pattern
🚀Folks, I explained today the facts and myths of
#CQRS
!
If you heard you need:
- 2 databases
- to use a messaging queue
- to be facing Eventual Consistency
- use it with Event Sourcing
and it's hard to apply and complicates the architecture.
