Impressive, isn't it? I guess you developer guys look and that and are amazed by the smartness, the cool details and the automation. But even if it's a really clever solution for solving the problem of opening the blinds when you're going up in the morning, is it really the smartest one? Even if the individual details and solutions are really smart, the overall result is just an over complicated system which is impossible to maintain or scale.
