I think it is just the opposite. In my particular situation at work, if we go the simple route (it's just a 2 step CRUD wizard, so that'd be Rails/django/etc) other 5 people might be redundant. We need a team of 5 people

I don't blame the language tbh. I blame the frameworks and tools (or the lack of) for web development. Look, I love node and javascript. But I can't deny it is is total mistake to use it in a business context for web dev when you

I agree with you, but the problem, the big problem, is that you're looked down if you propose to use simpler tools. It is horribly difficult to not use these advanced tools for simpler problems. At work my team does just f**ng CRUD for

I'd say for the web, the language is not as important as the ecosystem, in particular, as the frameworks and libraries for web development available. In that regard, for a single developer or a small team your best options are Rails,La

Can't agree more with this. I just can't believe how much time everything takes nowadays. I work in an inherited app which basically is just wizard of 3 steps. I'd say it's CRUD....but it is actually just C. The amount o

For a home setup having to bring up 3 containers just to have some metrics is too much in my opinion. I've been using InfluxDB at home just because of how easy it is to setup and use.

by midrus 6y ago
See my other comment in this thread. I've found InfluxDB a lot easier to setup and use (just apt-get install) and comes with push support, dashboards web ui, etc. I'd say it is easier and more powerful than rrd and cacti (used the

Recently I was looking to add some metrics to a small script and I didn't want to deal with all the complexity of setting up grafana, prometheus, the push-proxy-thing (sorry, don't remember the name). Looking for alternatives, I f

Yep, better to wait until the security issues happen to fix them. Great mentality.

I think the real advantage of Apple is that they're building both, the hardware and the software. I'm very skeptical we will ever see such a good integration in the linux or windows world because there isn't any single entity

Not my experience at all. Thinkpads are the one with the best support, but there are always problems with high DPI screens, plugging external monitors, suspending some times works some times doesn't, battery drains really quick, the tr

Security is not black and white. It is a spectrum of possibilities and an arms race between security measures and new attack strategies. So lowering all your barriers because one of them could be already weak is not a good strategy. If you&

I'm not saying you shouldn't use localStorage, or sessionStorage, or indexedDB. They are valid tools and they are there for a reason. I'm saying you should not use for SECURITY tokens which, if leaked, can allow others to imp

I think nowadays there are a lot of people that only built SPAs and never have used a framework such as Rails or Django, and that's a pity. They are missing a perfectly valid and productive way of shipping quality software.

No, it is not. And I hope I never end up using any application developed this way. Tokens stored in those storages you mention can be read by any javascript code, even third party. That doesn't happen with http-only cookies. Be careful

Same here. I'm already full remote, but if for any reason I weren't, I'd be looking for a new job immediately. Nothing is going to convince me to go back to open office plans. No amount of money will convince me of that. I&#x

I like node, but the only arguments I can find for it are 1) just one language/ecosystem for frontend and backend and 2) node can handle more concurrent connections per MB of ram. I agree rails is better in every other aspect.

I'm already a full remote worker, but if I had to go back to the office, I'd definitely look for another job if my current job didn't permit it. There are plenty of companies looking for remote employees, more than before now

Then use the commuting time you're saving now to go and make friends at the gym, at the local reading club, coffee shop, church or social centre. I'm totally in about making friends and getting along with all coworkers, being nice

I agree only in that it is performant, but from a purely computational point of view. Even if it is just a rest api, you still need a database/ORM layer, a validation framework, a migrations system, a way to document it, etc. So, from

Read the top comment. You start with a Makefile and a main.go and from there on you invent the universe, starting from (almost) writing an http server. Welcome to the future.
