It is not abour rewriting. It is about extracting functionality into separate services or projects as the TEAMS/PEOPLE grow so that they not step on each other. > We can have something like Rails minus a bunch of magic Examples? Bec

Also, the organization into "apps" in django is total nonsense in my opinion.

Absolutely. I've used django professionally for about 8 years and I agree with you. Python (and django) is great but solves only the backend side of things. Things that are by far superior in Rails in my opinion: * It is a real full st

In my opinion: Ruby On Rails. It has an awesome community, lots of gems (libraries) for web stuff. An opinionated way of doing frontend and backend. No waste of time taking decisions about what state management to use, how to organize stuff

The "defacto" today is to use React on top of a nodejs/Elixir/Go backend in a monorepo deployed across microservices in a custom kubernetes infrastructure. Hope you read enough of this comment to avoid going this way, an

Ohh yess.... I've been learning Rails lately (and stimulus, hotwire, et all) and ohhh my goddd... things feel so easy and simple. It's hard to go back to real life and deal with a giant mess of redux, rxjs, an freaking complex NIH

Don't forget to also add some kubernetes and nosql on top. Sounds like the perfect place I would hate to work for.

I always wonder why executives earn so much money when there is no responsibility on them when things go wrong. I'd like to see in jail those who make decisions, and earn salaries and bonuses accordingly to the responsibility they have

I did use a thinkpad X1 for a long time some years ago, I actually want to go back to an X1, it is the best alternative. But honestly, if I go back to it would be making a good bunch of trade-offs as well and mostly to satisfy my inner wish

Worst apple product is still far ahead of most non-apple alternatives. At least laptops wise.

I worked for a company that followed a similar process. This worked really well, except for one thing which I blame the terrible culture at that company, which is: Some times people would have strong disagreements on how to do something, so

Oh! yes... certainly that was mi experience too. I was referring to frontend... where you won't pay for the performance, but your users will (by having to upgrade their compures and/or just suffering it)

I've worked for many companies, small and large, corporate and startups. None of them had performance as a priority, or even considered at the product level. Any minimal performance optimization or win we had was because a developer ca

This is something that really concerns me about the new M1 based Macbooks. We as developers in the first world are very likely to be the first ones getting these, and this will make the gap with the average end user which usually does not h

Yes, but this wouldn't work either. I can add the node_modules/my-library path to be purged, but that means that I still will get included in my application EVERY class used in the component library, despite I might be using just

I like tailwind, but I just used it for small side projects so far. Something I don't understand yet, is how you would use the "purgecss" feature in a large project or in the context of a company with several teams and a desi

Happy unpoly user here too. I think it is way better than stimulus, turbolinks, htmlx, alpine, etc. Just doesn't have as good marketing as those.

Most of the market just wants the cheapest thing that will allow them to chat on facebook and watch netflix. If you are a professional and spend 10 hours a day at your computers, you will realize the quality of the screen matters a lot. As

I find unpoly so much better and complete than this. Unpoly just has bad marketing.

Yes...but how do you sell even more hardware? If your users are locked by not having alternatives because of your software. So what you're saying is correct, and what the parent comment says is also correct. They might not make as much

I bet this is a marketing strategy by DHH just before launching the new Rails version with the hey stack stuff.

That's under the assumption that code doesn't have to be maintained, updated with new features, and that writing it on any programming language has the same cost. Otherwise we would all be writing assembler. Humans are way, way mo

Make an extra effort to learn something else and move away. If you are already making a living by building ios apps, you're smart enough to be a developer in any other ecosystem. I have a co-worker that was in your exact same situation

One of my favourite books. So fun. I read it at the same time than a few other coworkers and, sadly, we found ourselves in a very similar environment. From that point on we were just laughing around at every situation that resembled situati
