              The task here is simple: to reduce work, it's a simple investment. The choice of picking the correct
              bottleneck is as important as the tool itself, as this gives it use. If it's never used, it never creates
              value. The same goes for uptime, it's important that stability is almost perfect, as downtime undermines
              the utility of having the tool. Remember that making and using a tool also creates debt for future
              maintenance of the tool.
              <br>
              To adhere to this, I often choose Golang or Python as they are cheap to maintain. Golang has good
              stability because it is easy to code and compile checks give early error detection. A word of caution on
              AI generated tools: while they are cheap to make, the maintenance debt grows exponentially, as the code is
              often poorly understood by the team and difficult to reason about over time.
