Talk about sledgehammer to crack a nut - honestly, why does anyone need type safety in a simple templating operation? Dynamic languages have their uses, you know. Type safety is a tool, not an ideology.

You have to be joking, surely? React/Vue as a mere static template languages? Dedicated static site frameworks such as Jekyll and Middleman are a much better experience. My favourite is still Perl's Template::Toolkit.

What are the language differences. What's missing in SCI's subset? Just Java stuff like deftype?

I wish journalists would define their terms. I had to dig deep into the article just to find out what a "demand-side platform" is.

Except you now need an extra JVM instance just for Leiningen.

It's often misunderstood that a lot of the much-vaunted cheap hosting providers offer PHP only as a CGI. You would typically pay extra for mod_php.

> PHP was really nice to get into programming and make a spaghetti website Facebook manages quite well with PHP. Maybe it's your fault you didn't learn how to use modern PHP practices which have been well-documented for over a

Not to meniton Kubernetes, AWS and Terraform. I don't think you really get PHP.

Examples?

Don't forget Clojure's libpython.clj. There's also Hylang which was inspired by Clojure.

He said 1000x developers not libraries. Big difference.

Apples to oranges. You're comparing a framework to a language. Ruby itself was born out of the desire for developer happiness. It doesn't follow logically that momentum for a large framework could not have evolved out of Clojure&#

So we should all just use Spring Boot? The need for a big Clojure framework is because Java and its frameworks are mostly object oriented.

I think this attitude in the Clojure community is sealing Clojure's fate. You discover the incredible genius of Clojure's simplicity then hit this brick wall of intransigence when you search for a framework which will give you lev

I'm not part of that "consensus".

Case in point. Ripley looks promising but it's just one dev and his single page Github doc. Useless to a newcomer or business looking for a framework for the long haul. Clojure has dozens of these projects.

Apple can go *ck themselves. I paid £1,250 in January 2020 for an iPhone 11 Max Pro which spontaneously acquired a vertical band of bright green light on the screen the other day. No sympathy at the "Genius Bar" so £309 to repair

For all the modern static site generators with their funky Javascript I still find Perl's Template::Toolkit to be the best SSG I've ever used.

What I hate most about the industry is how everyone drinks the AWS+Docker+Kubernetes kool aid. That plus the worship of React and Node with its tortuous async programming model.

Most of the non-system languages on the rise (Kotlin, Swift, Dart, JS, Python, C#) are a mixture of OOP and functional so I don't see OOP dying anytime soon.

C# and Java with minimum verbosity? That I'd like to see. Kotlin.js HTML generation is just hideous.

The else None is redundant, though. If you want a one-liner in Python just ignore the indentation: if date.today().weekday() == 5: print("It's Saturday")

Apart from the app itself ~/Library/Appliction Support/Microsoft/Teams was eating up 1.1Gb before I sent it packing to Trash. Same old Microsoft.

Plus there hasn't been a stable Spacemacs update in years. Telling users to use the dev branch doesn't inspire confidence.
