What is the latest trend in engineering? I have been reading a lot about Ruby Rails lately.
- yakto 16y agoMy money's on Lasso/FMP
- notJim 16y agoNode.js
- pjscott 16y agoNode is also -- and this is important -- fun. JavaScript may not be your cup of tea, but CoffeeScript is a nice way to program. The community is great; pretty much all of the open source code is on GitHub and there's a strong "jump in and start hacking" vibe. You can do some really neat stuff with socket.io and a bunch of miscellaneous technology. Just jump in and start hacking. It's easy to learn a lot by accident this way.
- nir 16y agoAny pointers to good Node.js code in CoffeScript?
- patrickyeon 16y agoWho cares? Pick one that sounds fun, and do shit. Even if that trend flops, you'll have some transferrable skills. The language/technology itself isn't as important as the domain knowledge and experience with concepts that the language/tech embodies.
