Why Django lasted

  • Batteries included is still a selling point after twenty years of microframeworks.
  • The admin, the ORM, and the security defaults are why news orgs and governments still start here.

Why GitHub lasted

  • It is where the code is. Resume, package registry, CI, identity, and the social graph of software.
  • Microsoft bought it and, against every instinct of 2018 Twitter, did not kill it.
