   I'll also try to address sandGordon's question. Like superfeeder, I have "backend" services, but I also have client-facing services. I value how Node.js handles slow clients. It also services some more 'utility' use cases for me, such as re

   First, you need to define 'fast'. Whats your workload and usecase? Why is python slow for you?

   I used the examples from the original article. I think the OP ported an EventMachine code to Node. When I said 'Java' I really meant JVM. Specifically I'm using Scala. Regardless, I have a different Clojure based project, with it as well, I

   I am using a mix of Ruby, Node and Java in production but after some hard-learned lessons chose to minimize the Node usage to things I absolutely need. My experience with the Node community: - Great people (Substack!) - Great attitude #node

   Looks great, I'd love to read the code. Any idea if this is in the same space as Esper?

    Looks great! Reminds me of when I built Logbook - store notes on Gists from CLI. The mindset is amazingly the same :) Though I offloaded most of the CLI processing to Thor, and didn't build Command/CLI abstraction into it. You might even fi

    Thanks Tim, that's great to hear! We have a separate service for resizing and cropping which isn't featured there. Feel free to say hello, we'll be happy to learn about your usecase and if possible offer some free help and pointers.

    From the 10 minutes I glanced at the code I kinda got lost in the abstractions and that's where I decided it's worth a deep look later, but I wouldn't say it's over-engineered. Can you elaborate a bit?

    Sounds a bit strange. I'd love to see an Ask HN with _proper_ technical details. Who knows, maybe they'll get better ways to solve this rather than close shop.

    True, but my point is people are already doing it at the start of the pipeline. Think what happens when Reuters decide to make a SaaS offering of their summarized content. Even regardless of that, you can hire a battery of professional summ
