Damn, I will have to take a look at aiohttp. That's impressive, I'm glad that python, my favorite language, can have that kind of performance.

Nice writeup. I'll keep this in mind for when PostgreSQL + SQLAlchemy would be overkill.

> it's hard to argue that performance is not an advantage of Go/Java And I never even remotely argued such a thing so I'm confused as to why you are saying this in reply to me.

That's subjective, and part of the sixty-year-old flamewar known as "dynamic vs static". You like to write the type of your variables next to them, all the power to you. I don't or, more exactly, I prefer the little ex

Sorry, I have no interest in getting into a religious flamewar. I will only say that I find it weird that you think that there aren't endless hacks and VMs in [insert here the languages you like].

I also tried Go and didn't feel it was a suitable replacement either. I had never heard of Nim, I'll have to give it a try, thanks.

Oh, terrific, another one. The only solid reason this article gave was the second one and, really, is the only one that would ever make sense: If the language one's using becomes the bottleneck then, by all means, change it[1]. Everyth

I use gitlab instead of GitHub and Travis and tend to use the free tiers of GAE and Heroku indistinctly. But man, I wasn't even aware of something like Sentry existing, I'll have to get me some of that. I also need to think of the

"IKEA effect" seems to be a different name for the "NIH syndrome", which I prefer to call "ownership preference" anyway, mostly because it doesn't use a brand name or an acronym.

Heh, most of the questions I've answered are in the Flask and/or Vue tags; not surprised to see them related and I'm happy that python's popularity keeps on growing.

Python is my favorite language and I really liked Go as I read about it. When time came to actually learn and use it, I was... Disappointed. Sticking with python still, for the time being.

The problem with two-way binding is that people use more than one source of truth and blame that questionable (to not use stronger words) decision on the framework. At least that's what I've seen it come down to.

From everything I'd read about it, I idealized Go and it sounded, on paper, like an awesome language. Actually writing it felt like a true dose of reality after such built-up expectations. It's... ok, I'd say I like it bett

Something tells me that, in this, "software engineer" probably doesn't mean the same thing it did in my university. What would a person with a degree in CS (or related) get from this program? Honest question.
