Deploying PHP also means updating database schemas or configuring .htaccess or configuring apache or updating php modules. Deploying a django app can be as easy as upload + restart django. Everyone doing a little bit of development should have no problem automating that tiny bit.
- Kudos 14y agoI don't disagree that everyone doing web development should understand migrations and the server stack. And yet it's completely unsurprising to me that a guy still in high school is unaware or ignorant to it, regardless of when he started out.
- buster 14y agoYes, ok, he is 18, that's true, so my post is probably a bit harsh. But still, if he keeps that attitude he'll be 30 or 40 and use Django in a time where everyone has moved on to new stuff(tm).
- Kudos 14y agoAge isn't the only issue. He is surrounded by other teenagers and probably has no peers to help guide him in real life. I think he's the kind of young developer that when he moves on to university or the workplace he'll rapidly broaden his skills.
- lemcoe9 14y agoI am totally confused how this comment is even relevant. You have literally no basis for it, and it is not even remotely true.
- Kudos 14y agoI am basing it on the influence a person's environment has on them. At the workplace or university, a person is more likely to encounter influential peers and mentors. Telling me a developer is likely to get the same kind of experience working bit jobs as a contractor in high school as they are either doing the same while pursing a CS degree, or working in a development team is preposterous. Edit: I just realised you're the OP. Add "gaining some maturity" to the things you'll get from the above.
