Thank you for your response. I intend to use Python because I'm more familiar with object-oriented style, and already have learned more about Python than Clojure. So I assume I'll be able to build things faster with Python.
I was asking HN if anyone could see any future problems that were not obvious to me. I understand the project will change and adapt to improve, but I prefer to avoid wasting time converting to fancy languages or throwing money at the problem.
- eshvk 12y agoThere could be several future problems that you could optimize around. Speed, usability of API, NLP aspects of the problem, integrating with off the shelf solutions and so on. It really depends on what you want. If you want to learn a language for the sake of learning it, more power to you. Go forth and pick one of those. Python is fun. I have heard amazing things about Clojure. If you want to ship, just ship! A coworker of mine said something amazing the other day: Whilst an Architect worried about Python vs Scala vs Java, someone shipped in PHP.
- scobar 12y agoIt appears that my perspective is ignorant of too many possible challenges I may face. I just need to build it, and react the best I can when a problem becomes apparent. Thank you for making this clear.
- eshvk 12y agoThat is alright, though. This is the nature of things. For everyone, really.
