Bottom left looks dumb now, but in 15 years when it is still doing heavy lifting as a legacy application with no external support, they'll be happy it was overbuilt.

Is everyone still using imagemagik under the hood? I’ve been out of the web server game for a while.
The rest of the world is catching up to the fact that containers are superior for modern, agile application deployment so nitpicking libraries is really only a thing when the security teams come knocking.
Containers are the ultimate "works for me" in software development. My experience it makes for more fragile software that depends on its environment being perfect and nothing else will do.
It sounds like you've confused containers with not containers, friend.
Well no, containers allow you to know exactly the environment it runs into, no matter what the actual host environment is, you can run your program on windows, Linux, Mac or any other Docker supported system and it will work the same, I don't see how that's fragile.

Yes, but it's more of the middle wide block of the picture. Under it, there are quite a few tools that have been maintained by some lonesome guys since 90's and some that haven't been updated for years. Sometimes both. Learned about that the hard way, unfortunately.
Yes 👍 does the job and does it fast
And that legacy application is actually only using one of those engines and it's to do something completely different and the dev who can explain it retired.
API the legacy uses has been capped. :-/
Those planes are more finished than my projects.
Also my KSP inventory of vehicles.

I can confirm #3 works.
I'd call it the Boeing 788888888887 or the Airbus A3888888880
Except instead of pronouncing it eight eight eight eight eight … it’s just eyyyyyyyyyyt

Or be me, and have a great commit history, 4 years ago, when I just committed random garbage.
Look at bottom left.
Bottom left fucks.
Bottom left is when I make a kubernetes cluster to serve up a mock weather API for practice.
But, if the top right worked, it would be really awesome.
"Boarding starts 4 hours before the flight because we have to load so many damned passengers and luggage"
Seriously, reality aside there’s just ONE DOOR.
I/O issue
shingled passenger storage.
The nose flips open like a C5, and it just scoops up passengers by the busload.
Some people will just stand in the way right after the doorway because they "don't want to stand up when the person for the window seat comes". There'll be others who spend an eternity getting their luggage into the overhead bin. And others will just put their luggage in the first overhead bin they see because "there might not be enough space where I'm sitting". The majority though will decide to derobe right at their seat for 5 minutes because they didn't have enough time to do so while waiting 2 hours before boarding.
Imagine an entire town being killed in just one accident.
But there would have to be less planes, so less accidents in total.
The sum would be about the same, assuming this plane would be averagely safe.

The difference is those got off the ground
You laugh, but I'll bet Top Left could do like Mach 3
It's absolutely useless, but extremely fast at what it does.
C++?

Still worth it if you learn something from them, even if that something is that they suck.
Bottom right is just a 737 MAX.
Not all that different from the canada crj series. Those always feel like they are too long for their wingspan.
