- ravenstine 7y agoThe nature of HN creates an illusion that everyone is(or should be) using the cutting edge tool, framework, or paradigm du jour. Rails and Node.js are fairly old in tech years at this point, especially the former, yet iNaturalist is a demonstration that they are both very capable and worth using in 2020. I don't know how I got misinterpreted. There have been multiple articles posted here in the past referring to such things as "Boring Software". My comment was intended as a compliment in every way.
