Why not consider Clojure?

We were talking to the reptile caretaker at the Abu Dhabi zoo and we learnt that

- snakes are actually cuties. And more like babies. They do not have strong fight or flight ability like mammals. If they get hurt, they go into a corner and just give up

- they're extremely misunderstood beings. When a snake is hissing, it is because it it actually very very frightened.

- their eye sight is very very bad. They detect mostly by that body heat. And they've a very hard time detecting friends vaa foes. A ball python actually curls into a ball when tensed up. The caretaker had to pet the snake to help it relax.

- most of that snakes are non venomous.

Could you share more about your experience?

A bit ingenious to say we do nothing when you have CloudFlare in front of your servers. Cloudflare by itself can automatically detect and handle DDoS without explicitly activating the Under Attack mode.

Also Java jar files give you the same benefit.

That seems fair. Instead of saying “this is what you’re doing wrong” better formulate “here’s how to super empower your skills”

The comments here are needlessly pessimistic and dismissive of a new data flow paradigm. In fact, this looks like the best NoSQL experience there is. SQL while is a standard now, had to prove itself many times over and also was a result of a massive push by few big tech backers.

Rama still looks like it needs some starter examples - that is all.

From what i could gather reading the documentation over few weeks... Rama is an engine supporting Stored Procedure over NoSQL systems. That point alone is worth a million bucks. I hope it lives up to the promise.

Now back to my coding :D

My Remarkable 2 E-Ink notebook for sure. I'm a pen and paper notes taker - R2 has been extremely useful in freeing me up from the pen and paper books. And my notes are searchable and tagged!

I’ve have used ChatGPT for

- De-obfuscate a obfuscated JS code

- Unminify a JS code. Asked it to guess function names based on the functionality

- Work with it like a rubber duck to plan out the possible solutions to a code problem

- To suggest function names based on the functionality

- To name repos

- Modify a piece of Go code to add specific functionality to it. I don’t know to write Go; I can read it and grok the high level functionality

If we don’t want to call the HN crowd non-technical

Thank you, kind stranger

All our cron jobs and scripts with non trivial logic are in babashka now. It has been a joyful experiences

Functional programming combined with the process dependency tree of Erlang.

Up until a point functional programming with PHP or Python were always littered with small state time bombs which could change at any point in time. Only after thinking about state explicitly in Erlang based programming, was it clear how the state enclosed in OOPS is a total digression from reasoning about state and behavior separately.

Python, Erlang and then Clojure

On the contrary, I've seen product teams assume the pain of the consumer and relay the same to engineering; and then engineers having to push back on the insane requirements.

Nevertheless, product which work in an agile model without collaborating with tech is doomed to fail

Have you checked microacquire? You should be able to find a buyer there...
