Thank you for the input. Maybe I will never get to the point where I can comfortably make a web app, but learning the language has been a fun experience so far. I've heard good things about Scala and Akka.

Elixir and OTP are really nice, but I'm frustrated by the type system, even with typespecs. I finally gave in and started learning Haskell. I would still choose Elixir/Phoenix for some web apps though.

I had to build a couple of Samsung TV apps, and that indeed looks like their IDE. It's Javascript (you can use HTML or Flash). Not much of a threat to Apple though, it is the worst platform I have ever developed for. Try it for yourself: h

If you use node, I'd stick with browserify. RequireJS is nice if you want to load scripts asynchronously, but in reality your code is usually packed to one or two files so there is no need for the asynchronous part. Plus I dislike the Requi

It took me more than four months after college to find my first job as an intern. Six months later, I got offered a better job so I quit. However during the transition I was offered some well paid freelance gigs so I didn't end up taking th

One of these tricks is that you should fix 'the root of the problem' while a lot of the other tricks are hacks to ship the game on time. I'm a bit confused.

I'm glad that I see this now because I was going to launch a similar service in a month or two here in France. The wireframes are really, really similar.

I use redis a lot to store non critical data. For instance I store signup confirmation tokens in redis. The web app sends a message to RabbitMQ when a user signs up, then a background worker catches that message, creates an activation token
