   I agree that there were a lot of misunderstanding going around but it has caused some problems. For new projects you have to choose a platform/framework. If you choose Angular 1 you might have to learn it and release a version of your

   Sounds great! Is the code open source? Do you plan versions for Androind and WinPhone? We would like the latter.

   To release a 2.0 that basically is a 1.3 without some things is not much of progress. It will be interesting to see if they can complete new planned features without breaking the api when they move through more 2.x releases and later 3.0.

   There are a number of IndexedDb libraries that uses promises. However, there is or was a problem with how IndexedDb is specified to work that is not really compatible with promises. I'm not sure if they have fixed this yet. https:&#x2

   A lot of other languages makes you write a lot more code for some things that js can express very shortly. I usually find that the js version is more readable. The problem, I think, is that most programmers are used to class-based inheritan

   They probably don't mean 'class' in the programming language sense and should therefore use another name.

   I agree that there things work differently on the server and on the client but the lines are getting blurred. For example, you might not need api versioning if you only write a SPA application, there is usually some caching on the client al

   You mean that one needs competent developers? That is nothing new. At least a few of the developers should now both languages and sides.

    I agree, if the one language idea really starts to be followed everywhere it is probably javascript that will win. There is almost nothing in this article explaining why clojurescript is or could be a better choice.

    I think you should have a timeframe. It's ok to try a new framework or language after a couple of years, otherwise you will be stuck on something old. That doesn't mean you must use the newest js framework at all times (probably i

    Then why aren't you using Cobol (I assume you're not) :-) Seriously it is probably a good idea to look a little at new things and possibly try one out and later switch every few years. I could be after 5 years or after 10 years bu

    That is one point of having code reviews, to get everyone in a team or an organization to write (mostly) the same type of code.

    I assume you mean "enhance speed of data delivery to clients". Otherwise you are trying to make the system slower.

    I agree with almost everything in the article. A lot of companies should try to get better at training junior developers. Some junior developers might also want to rethink their salary requirements and need to only work with fun stuff. If t

    Nice to read some specific recommendation instead of general complaints. That said I'm not sure all these point would work if MS followed them. Saying that MS should fix a lot of open source projects is strange (even if they already do

    We are currently using Reflux and it is very easy to get started with but it uses singletons which was one of the things mentioned that they want to be able to avoid. I still think Reflux is a great framework to start with but if you want s

    On the other hand Facebook is doing so much with PHP that it may save it. If they get Hack to be more known and supported it might count as a good language which more organizations could use. Not sure if they ever add concurrency and shared

    by jbergens 11y ago

    I think some things are connected. PHP does not have shared memory like static members. This makes it very easy to run in on clusters. No one cares if one server goes down and is replaced by another. This also makes it hard to write large s

    Yes, there are a few systems which stores info in memory but backs it up to disk. Look at VoltDb, Aerospike, Couchbase (to a degree), Starcounter, OrigoDb etc. That said for a CMS the structure is usually the problem unless you have billion

    In most cases it's probably better to have one machine each for different jobs, then all cpu on every machine can be used for the current job. There are probably very few jobs that take extreme amount of cpu without also using a lot of

    I think you could turn almost all arguments in this text the other way around. A team of 4 developers spend 12 months building a system and then a DBA works with it for 4 hours a week. Which part should you optimize? Long time ago there wer

    This actually sums it up pretty well and it's also the cause for the shortage. A lot of developers don't want to learn all the tools that sysadmins and devops are using. And I suspect that many sysadmins don't know enough abo

    As I understand DevOps are often meant to have more developer skills than sysadmins. They might have to help with how some infrastructure things in the applications should work and should be able to script the applications themselves, not j

    For simple things on the command line it is usually easiest to use a language you're comfortable with if there is also good libraries availible. If you write C++ all day you can use C++ for file mungling if you find the libraries you n
