The fact that Node.js is being used in this equation says a lot about how much impact and penetration it has achieved in a rather short while.
Personally I hope that Go does just as well, if not a lot better. I am a bit of a fan of both.
- weego 14y agoI think it says more about the bias of the writer, he seems to assume that Node would be the default choice and that something like erlang/scala/clojure/go would be alternatives. That may be true for someones sideline project.
- jff 14y agoIf he's a HN reader, he's probably assumed that Node is the default choice these days, based on the articles that come up.
- VeejayRampay 14y agoNot really no. It only says a lot about how much advertising has been done recently about the webscaling capabilities of Node (like it's anything special). I think people are starting to realize that as good as it is, it simply isn't the only way to achieve results like these (see Vert.x, Tornado and tons of other projects with comparable capabilities).
