What is your day job?
- AndrewSChapman 8y agoI work in a small team building APIs with PHP for the real estate industry. In my last job I did manage to use D for a "sequence mining" algorithm that looked for problematic behavioural patterns in web user behaviour. PHP would have been waaay too slow for the quantity of data that needed to be evaluated. That was honestly one of the most enjoyable things I've ever coded. My hobby project languages or choice are currently D and Kotlin. I prefer the semantics and flexibility of D, but Kotlin has the backings of the tried and tested Java ecosystem, which is hard to beat when you just want to get down to it. Also web servers in Java are vastly superior at the moment. Vert.x is so very fast.
