Hidden inside this fascinating screed is an announcement about the "Google Grok" project, which appears to be something of an Eclipse-killer for dynamic languages. It's good to hear that Google is working on this problem, and I'm interested to see what they come up with.
- cageface 14y agoThat was the most interesting point for me too. Mobile development has reminded me of the significant tooling benefits of static languages but also the verbosity and awkwardness of said languages. If I could have an IntelliJ-level IDE for Ruby or Python or JS I'd be very happy.

The company behind IntelliJ already makes IDEs for Ruby, Python and JS: Python: Pycharm http://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/ http://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/ Ruby: RubyMine http://www.jetbrains.com/ruby/ http://www.jetbrains.com/ruby/ JS: Webstorm http://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/ http://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/
