We also like making sure there’s sufficient energy to power the world.

I literally tried it out for first time today and none of autocompletions worked for TS or Ruby. I hope they sort it out.

I love jetbrains because it’s so feature rich and helps me a ton but god damn it’s slow.

70-300k is a crazy wide range to lump together. Quality of life and flexibility to pay for things is extremely different across it.

That said, the reason is simple, there’s no good product out there so people pirate. I haven’t pirated music in ages because Spotify solved that industry with a single reasonably priced offering.

On the other hand the dozens of streaming services have gotten out of hand by now. Same with renting movies, I’d rather enjoy in the cinema or torrent it, especially given how mediocre 95% of production has been in recent years.

This seems very false to me. Spotify is the prime example. They offer a good product that covers a 100% of my needs at a reasonable price. If that was an option for say UFC or engineering books, you bet I’d be subscribed. But being forced to read through some crappy reader software when I need the book source to take annotations in another software doesn’t work, so here we are. Same with the absurd pay per view business model of UfC.

I feel like the only viable model for these delivery apps is delivery with autonomous vehicles like Nuro (or any other, this is just the company I have heard of). Whether that’s actually viable and how soon, I have no idea, but the model as it stands does not work currently.

A whole lot of people will lose income (no matter how mediocre) if this were to come to fruition though.

I think Rails wins out in terms of simplicity, but I haven’t played enough with PHP.

Any chance your configs are on a repo somewhere?! For rails vim and for this tonic setup (if there’s even configs needed for that)

Start moving toward public transit? Public transit is not some new discovery that’s been put on hold because of self-driving attempts.

You say this as if it’s cheap or easy to make any kind of significant public transit improvement in an already established city.

This right here. Something monumental would have to happen for senior leadership to green light a rewrite, because that’s a massive project that will bring in no additional revenue.

Electron is ok. Not the best, but not as bad as some people claim it is, though it varies app to app. I feel the same way about React Native.

I loved tender initially, but the recent price increase pushed me to move away from it. I think the platform is good, but prices are steep.

Does anyone use Render at scale? I image the bills are hefty.

Certainly it will.

Compute power is absurdly cheap these days, especially for something as simple as SSR of web pages

Does ruby have an NLP library or are you rolling your own?

This is dope! Whats the tech stack behind it if you don't mind me asking?

Cool! Thanks :)

This is awesome! Would be nice to be able to change colour

Have you tried Sails.js? Seems like Adonis is not very actively developed?

In my understanding template would be the entire page. So while an an individual div re-rendering is also technically a template, it's not really the same thing. It's a tiny re-render compared to a page refresh.

Again, this is a different spin on doing things. Rails preaches abandoning the over-complexity of the client-side in the browser and pushing work to the server.

I personally love it. I'm sure someone who is as fast in React as I am in Rails is laughing reading this.

That’s rich, I bet there’s 3 new JS frameworks that came out just today lol.

It is nice. I’m not seeing enough adoption unfortunately which is negative in terms of work opportunities

You don’t re render a template. Only what you need to. If it’s a single div then so be it. Which is why it’s SPA-like experience with server side code

There’s no waiting for the user. It’s an SPA experience without the headaches of client side state management.

I suppose what you have to learn and add is relative to what you already know and have, isn’t it?

There’s multiple approaches. Since everything is server side rendered, you can for example, stream updates through web sockets

You can do a lot of things, depends on your goals I suppose. You seem to be really sold on the concept of not learning Rails, so I won’t argue with you further. I personally found Rails much easier to learn and use than React or pretty much anything I use in the JS world.

Rails is built with developer happiness in mind. JS though became the answer to all questions for reasons that are beyond me. You can’t escape it entire so I try to limit how much I have to use it.

Hotwire introduced turbo frames and streams, removing the need for the page refresh when data is mutated

You can have those interactions on Rails just like anywhere else. Cloud compute is also absurdly cheap at scale today compared to the past.

Can’t write your backend in react. So presumably someone else is writing an API in their sleep that your app will consume.

This is the way. Rails and Hotwire especially really worth a look. Hope it can gain some traction, so tired of the constant “innovation” of JS frameworks

Really wish Microsoft would contribute/donate to ruby/rails platform even more than Github does already. They can afford to.
