Entirely off-topic (or maybe not given the nature of like 20% of the comments here), but it's getting seriously annoying how in every thread even tangentially related to programming there are ten or so people (not the same people, no

As a Python developer, and when docker is not an option, nodeenv is the perfect solution for me, to the point that I have a bash function specifically for creating a Python virtualenv and then installing nodeenv on top.

> You get better control and less risks. Well, I'm not saying that people just put whatever first library they found as a dependency. We should review different options and pick the most mature that adjusts to our case. Ultimately,

Two very important ones: - Learn about modeling the data of the application you're gonna work on. You're going to be very sorry if you picked a non-relational database for a relational model. - Avoid NIH: There's a very good

The top one should always be on top is "keep up with standard JS", it's rapidly approaching what could be considered a sane standard library. Once the specification for web components is finished, standard JavaScript plus Bab

I'm confused at all the comments focusing on the fact that he intends to make money from this because... so what? Making money is not a bad thing, and he still intends to accomplish good things. One doesn't need to be a martyr to

I'm trying to find how Ride Austin was built. I assume that the money for the developers and the servers must've come from somewhere. If it was the drivers themselves, isn't that basically the 25% they pay uber up-front? Mind

This is interesting. For the very first application I had to create from scratch, the first thing I learned was about SQLAlchemy and the second was Alembic. It's almost alien to me to see that there are large organizations that have ne

First, be entirely sure that you actually need an SPA. So, in stages: - Database: Postgres (you could start with any relational DB, Postgres is just one of the best). It's very, very likely that your model is gonna be relational so bet

Yet another chapter in one of the big flamewars. Seeing as I fall in the monorepo camp, I must say I mostly agree; also, I much prefer this tone for an article. I find it enjoyable how plenty of comments both here and in the other discussio
