I personally can't wait for Rails to be a distant past. So many start-ups got burnt badly by using Rails -- easy to start, hard to scale, maintain, and extend. Rails is too opinionated and if your use-cases don't fit into "

Is this a stand alone JS lib or does this require node as well?

This is right on point about automation and intelligent systems. At Cortex ( http://www.meetcortex.com/ ), we are building tools that help remove some of the pain with marking on social media, where you have to; create large

This would work but in this case the "bloggers" (who curates the feed) doesn't create the content. There is still blog, bloggers (creating content), and the thing that curates the content.

I wonder if he is under pressure to keep up with Facebook and maybe make it more and more like Facebook -- that it can't be.

I agree with you for live stuff but for other things where you were away for 3 hr, I think I would want something that gives me the best Tweets.

This is from 2014. Most of the DSPs are struggling now.

This is not true, especially in our industry. Considering how many start-up owners are under 40 and employ many people.

The Java ecosystem is fairly complex and it's hard to understand. Your statement of "Oracle essentially has a monopoly on Java" is not true, considering Java language is used to built Android apps, runs on diff VM and uses d

I am not sure what makes you trust node.js (V8) more than the JVM. The JVM has been in solid for a long time, has higher performance, and more stable. The JVM GC is very good and highly-tunable.

Slick is good. Although we use the plain SQL interface because it offers the most flexibility. The docs for Slick should be much much better since it can get fairly complex. I would say its not very newbie friendly especially if you tryi

Upgrading minor versions is the way to go. It still seemed like a pain to upgrade since Play Framework has changed quite a bit in the 2.X branch -- more than you would think. I am not trying to trash Play Framework since when you get it u

by dk8996 10y ago
I have used Play Framework in production and its really good -- I really hope there is more adoption like we have seen with Node or Rails. The only complaint, is that there have been big changes from 2.0 to 2.5. Moreover, the documentatio

I really liked the read but I kinda agree, he seemed to make the same or similar point paragraph after paragraph.

by dk8996 10y ago
This was such a nice read. The author points out a number of small problems that add up to something much larger. I can see how we need some version of something like the Internet for mobile devices -- not mobile web. I think the whole m

Being a techy that in Boston, I still don't get why anyone wants to work at HubSpot. Moreover, I still don't know what their product does.

Very nice work but it seems like some companies are not in the right category. Like Zenefits is in Fintech category.

I got to say AWS Certificate Manager is a game changer -- it took me 5 min to secure two domains. Last time I did it, buying a certificate and converting to work with AWS took about four hrs.

Display ads have a bunch of issues; bots, accidental clicks, and now ad blocking. I've worked for a large DSP and saw this first hand, even on closed platforms like Facebook there were bots. Change is coming, I think that content mar

I agree. Content marketing on social media is becoming a big thing. Moreover, its usually much better than a display ad and has some interactions capabilities -- like any other post/tweet. Source: working for a company that is build

One things about Twitter is that it gets way less post engagement than Facebook or Instagram. Its a big firehose, if you tweet, and don't get anything back -- you wounder if its worth it.

Trivial to implement but not compatible if we both implemented. That's the main benefit of Scala Optional, its baked-in -- I don't have to worry about writing adapter to use your library.

by dk8996 11y ago
We work with Scala at our company and this is the style we use. I think that it's something that even a new person to Scala can easy understand.

Yes, in the case where you have a old domains and you want Google page rank juice (via 301).
