Right on. Exactly how I feel as well. A few years back Backbone was all in the rage, and then Angular, then React, but the pieces were all moving too fast. Building a site is hard enough. My decision? stick to what works best now (to best of my knowledge for maintenance) and focus on the most important thing: revenue. I hate to be the first jumper.

Does it person think that programming is like cooking vegetables ?

I am tired of people treating programming like some vocational trade subject - or something that can be picked up over the weekend.

Being a good programmer in any sub-domain, either it be web, robotics, javascript, python, C++ requires a lot of study.

The attrition rate for any serious subject - accounting, medicine, engineering, etc is really high. How are people expecting programming to always be simple and low paid ? Its professional work just like accounting, medicine and any traditional engineering.
