- magicalhippo 2y agoAs a Norwegian I'm very curious, where in the pipeline were you using YAML? And why? I've only seen it used for configuration.
- StableAlkyne 2y agoI've seen teams use it as a replacement for JSON because it has the perception of being more "modern"

- bornfreddy 2y agoWhile JSON is annoying because it lacks some pretty basic features (comments, trailing comma), at least its spec is short. YAML is huuuge - there are way too many ways to do the same thing.

- quechimba 2y agoWe were using a fork of https://github.com/carmen-ruby/carmen/tree/master/iso_data/base/world https://github.com/carmen-ruby/carmen/tree/master/iso_data/b... with our own translations. We used the data in the signup form.
- TZubiri 2y agoI usually think of yaml for internal config files, would never think of yaml for user data. Don't ask me why though, might have something to do with how it's written like a python file, no user would want to write their data in yaml format.
- nurgasemetey 2y agoProbably, OP didn't keep user data in YAML, but I think there was config that kept allowed countries to sign up.
