Two quick questions: 1) does your comment above mean that it makes little to no sense to apply if a startup is in different (albeit, somewhat adjacent) domain: mine targets materials science and engineering; 2) how do feel about solo founde

Nice work, perhaps this has its niche. However, for general front-end development, I'm wondering about what are core advantages, over, say, Vue (simplicity is the only aspect that comes to mind off the bat). Considering that the size i

I appreciate you sharing your experiences. (Though your comment on #2 is very helpful as well, I was specifically interested in quantified estimates of differences in resulting system quality and developer productivity, if at all possible.)

Two questions for those with significant experience developing in F#: 1. Have you tried using JetBrain's Rider IDE for that and, if so, how deficient your experience was when compared to using Rider for C# development? If, alternativel

The sensor-based driver assist solutions is what I meant as a secondary aid in my comment above. However, these solutions are reactive and quite partial as opposed to strong preventative measures like alcohol detection-based car immobil

I didn't say trivial implementation , but rather a trivial solution (i.e., a general approach ). Regarding the issue that, in addition to alcohol, there exist a large number of drugs potentially diminishing one's ability to driv

Well ... Firstly, human lives are much more important than a preference to use an alcohol-based mouthwash (considering that non-alcohol alternatives exist). Secondly, it very well might be possible to design and/or calibrate sensors to

While there is some truth to what you are saying in your linked post, the real truth is more nuanced and, as usual, lies between any extremes. Firstly, when talking about extreme flexibility and experimentation, you're not talking

Well, by "relatively popular" I meant that AS/400 servers (aka AS400 or IBM iSeries or IBM System i: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_System_i ) have been quite popular mostly only within certain industr

I see. Yeah, it sounds pretty scary. Well, hopefully, the job that you have accepted instead of that one has been much better.

If my guess is correct, it seems that you have missed a chance to work on relatively popular AS/400 servers ... :-)

Fair enough. I'm glad that we seem to be largely on the same page on the subject, then. As for the "common perspective", I usually refer to that as consensus and, indeed, it is very hard - in some cases, I would say, excruc

I guess, your ballpark estimate is too rough (and/or Python 3 has improved significantly since then). The sources / benchmarks that I used to back up my claims [1-3] imply use of pure Python, not "almost pure-C". That in

I'm curious about sources for your claim of Python being 100-1000x slower than Go or Java. While the lower bound of the cited range is realistic (but only for certain problems), the majority of the range is highly unlikely. According t
