Have you ever lived on a different country? Despite it's ugliness, Athens is a vibrant and diverse city that never sleeps. Everything you need to do is close to your home. Jobs, night life, shops, bookstores, etc even a walk by the sea

You can't design a new city from the ground up and make it perfect. Cities grow organically over the time. Athens is one of the oldest inhabitated cities in the world. Growing up in Athens I really hated this ugly architecture but now

Have you tried jupyter notebook + pandas dataframes? You just import a csv and you can explore, clean, manipulate data and make any sort of calculation using a real programming language. On top of that you can use something like seaborn and

Depends on what you want to do. The biggest advantage with native languages like kotlin or Swift is that you can leverage the platform APIs and implement interesting features. That being said, recently I used flutter for a small ~5KLOC proj

If they spent all this time and energy into building a high performant and minimal react/vue app instead of using their over-engineered in-house front end frameworks the result would be even better. Maybe they should just embrace Vue.j

I'm not talking about Javascript as a language vs Ruby/Python. Javascript is super hot and exciting and react.js is eating the web no doubt. I'm talking about classic, stateful MVC monolithic backends, which is the most commo

It doesn't really matter anyway but Koa.js(and express.js) creator TJ Holowaychuk switched from Node to Go at ~2014 and hasn't look back. After all these years he's still the number one contributor on github. It's very s

Most of the web apps are mostly CRUD at the end of the day and boring stacks like rails,php,python are perfect for this kind of job. The most popular node.js framework is express.js and it doesn't even have anything built-in to parse r

This is very sad. Hapi.js seriously tried to bring some sanity back to node.js development. Eran Hammer is a rock star. He did an amazing job, brought a super clean codebase, secure defaults etc but i feel the timing was bad. Hapi.js was go

Go is probably the best candidate for a safer and faster python. However, if i had to choose only one statically typed language to learn that would be Java. The language is super popular, the tooling is great. There are tons of learning res

while everyone knows javascript that doesn't mean it's always the right tool for the job. Personally, i had the worst experience with node.js for the backend. There are no standards,you have to configure almost everything from scr

I'm studying CS but haven't heard any concrete examples of why I should learn a lisp (scheme, Clojure). Every time I ask i get pseudo-intellectual answers of how it will expand my mind, make it easier to express complex human prob

That's a big difference. I can't use a cheap shared hosting and managing a VPS (os updates, database backups etc) is too much for a small blog. Node.js is fine but it turns out after all these years, php is still the king in crud,

Ghost looks great and very polished! For me though, it provides much less out of the box (no built-in comments etc). It's also harder to self host and manage and the hosted service costs 30$/month which is extremely pricey for an

I really hope personal blogging becomes popular again!. Speaking of which, I still haven't found a really good alternative to the "horrible" WordPress for blogging. It has: - Integrated API, RSS - Tons of plugins - Accessibil

I also love when i visit a website with a simple markup and minimal js. Not everything should be a react/graphql isomorphic SPA, but have you checked NotionHQ[0]? The whole thing is a single page react app. People use it to build wikis

I'd like to ditch google analytics for a new small side project I'm building. I live in a small country in Europe and for me the most important feature of these alternatives is the cookieless tracking and the lightweight scripts.

Wow, has anyone tried it? I really want it to work as expected. This could really help adoption.

Wow, they really listen to people's feedback. Looking forward to testing it with a couple of small apps I have once it becomes stable. Overall, the dart/flutter experience has been amazing for me. The team looks serious about prov

Python received much of its latest praise from introductory level college students that haven't done much programming other than "import numpy". I've used python and sure i like it better than other "bad languages&q

Most answers are about backend/infra etc but i'm going with client side apps and especially Flutter(Dart) + Android Studio. In 30 minutes, tops you have a production-ready environment to develop mobile (and soon web) apps. - flutt

is this a completely new version? I remember ghost and strapi blowing up in the node.js community couple of years ago with the promise of replacing WordPress, but haven't really heard of strapi since then. Now i see it supports not onl

Is Flutter/Dart the Ruby on Rails of UI development? I know it may put some people off that we have to use a completely new language to solve problems we've already (kinda) solved, but I believe this time google got it right. The

meanwhile, I've made a small app with Flutter and loved it. Everything just works. Install it in 10 minutes and you're good to go. In flutter everything is a widget and creating your own widgets by composing other widgets makes so
