Ethan was a man of principle. And that principle was: Always use the latest technology, no matter what.
When JavaScript frameworks changed, Ethan changed with them. He didn’t just adopt new tech—he worshipped it. If a beta release dropped at 2 AM, Ethan was already in his chair, installing it by 2:01.
One day, his team was working on a simple company website. Simple. Static pages, some forms, a contact section. The kind of thing you could build in an afternoon with HTML and CSS. But Ethan scoffed at such primitive tools.
“We should do this right,” he declared. “I’m thinking a cutting-edge React + AI-driven backend with a blockchain-powered content management system. Oh! And we should definitely integrate a quantum-resistant encryption algorithm. Just in case.”
“…In case of what?” asked Olivia, the team’s weary project manager.
“In case quantum computers break the internet,” Ethan said solemnly.
They were just trying to build a page with an About Us section. Now, they had microservices, 12 different dependencies, and a build time that required two coffees and a short nap.
Then, disaster struck: A newer JavaScript framework was released.
Ethan panicked. “Guys, we have to migrate.”
“But we just—”
“MUST. MIGRATE.”
After three days of frantic rewrites, dependency conflicts, and a few existential crises, they finally launched the site. It was modern. It was fast. It was cutting-edge.
And then, two minutes later…
A new framework dropped.
Ethan stared at the release notes, hands trembling.
Olivia sighed. “Go on. You know you want to.”
Ethan was already halfway through the migration before she finished her sentence.
