ReactPHP and all the other "async" frameworks became obsolete the moment Swoole entered the game.

So what you're saying is that the framework that's got the least active ecosystem, least amount of devs that use it and that you can hire, least amount of resources is the best for startups - companies that need to grow, find empl

I chose Vue because I despise Facebook from the bottom of my soul and I don't want to use tools made by them. That's it. React is actually fantastic, but I'm an old frontender and using React instead of Vue won't really

So what you're saying is that.. I am responsible for my happiness, and that other people are not to blame for the choices I made in regards to my behavior and life, especially straight white men? Wow, that's a hard cookie to swall

So what you're saying is that React spawned an army of people who we can call developers, despite them not knowing how browsers and HTTP works, what algorithms are, how to approach developing your javascript app so it doesn't beco

Which means that React attracts people who aren't really developers but they want to jump in on the hype train, right?

We shouldn't do many things but we do. If I feel embarrassed, it means I am vulnerable. I want to keep it to myself and I have the right to feel embarrassed, despite it being illogical. Humans aren't perfectly logical beings. If w

The content is brilliant. Very, very, very well done. From engineering POV: I'm amazed that I visited a website that set no cookies, that no resource was blocked by uBlock / nanoDefender / nextdns. Amazing. Just amazing. Such

Software development is not your calling, it's just another job for you. A very good job, but still: just a job. I'm not critcizing you, just stating how I understood what you wrote. Difference between something that's your c

No. Laravel performs quite nicely. Rails can't be compared to Laravel, it's slower by an order of magnitude, as mentioned previously. Any framework bears overhead, they all optimize programmer's time invested into solving the

Having "much stronger" type system cannot be anyone's definitive reason for deciding to go with Hacklang instead of PHP. Type system doesn't guarantee that the programmer will utilize it properly, produce optimal code or

This change means that sufficient nagging on popular social networks can bully entire companies into submission. Where do we draw the line between technology and being offended? The whole notion of "we are doing it to fix things"

Maybe you're reading it wrong. It makes no sense to provide wisdom that clashes with other points. So.. you might be applying it wrong. You could be the only love of someone's life. Or the only that made a difference. Or the only

You don't have to take it in as black or white. It does not mean "give away everything you have and be miserable". The way I read it was: don't hoard, make others happy. It does not mean I should live a miserable life in

This was the same thought I had about Vue when I first used it. I knew vanilla javascript - Vue is vanilla javascript. I knew HTML and CSS - Vue's component-based approach looks exactly like HTML. It didn't take more than 20 minut
