I don't know if this is your point, but we're hearing the same stores with AI. Do these people really mean what they say or are they just lying to paint themselves as honorable
There's a moral line that every person has to make about what work they're willing to do. Things aren't always so black and white, we straddle that line The impression I got reading the article is that they didn't want to work for bubble ai companies trying to generate for the sake of generate. Not that they hated anything with a vector db
Whats "really good"? Pydantic? Mypy with dataclasses and built in typings? Is integration with Django okay?
Genenily curious, not sarcastic.
Im coming from from static typing and learning python ecosystem. Im still searching to make it work for me
I say the opposite, the lack of tooling highlights the weakness of the language.
The drive to make it declarative/mimic "natural" language by reshuffling and overloading can be "delightful" to some, but beyond the paper covered surface is a mess. And for what ?
"5.times do something unless" isn't cute to me. It's a dog "talking" by putting peanut butter in his mouth.
But I think I'm the only one who feels this way
Honestly it makes me roll my eyes, "let's describe our software utility as if we're trapped in a perfume commercial".
But on the other hand, I think when creating something it does help to have underlying vision, even if it's abstract or doesn't quite make sense.
I'm being overly dramatic and petty with "hate". it's all totally personal preference... but not a fan of classic oop, I think "lets make programming syntax like conversation speaking" is dumbest idea i've heard in my life, I like some kind of static typing, and separating blocks by indention is truly awful
For saas as a solo dev, Rails would be faster for you to get up and running, rails also specifically caters to solo SaaS devs. but python is much more popular (you can look up the yearly stack overflow survey for more info) and you'll find developers much more easily. Consider Django, a similar MVC batteries included framework.
I say this unbiased as a ruby and python hater lol
This isn't scalable for any kind environment with multiple services and teams. Can you imagine "actually the table display will be handled by the User service BE, we'll just inject it".
The reason why people reach for react and js for simple projects is because that's what theyre familiar with at work (that or they're training in hopes of work), even when theoretically they could of used something way more stripped down
Because I'm from working class, rust belt and ive seen the reality the state of America blue collar, not just the "the guy who installed my TV said he owns his own business and makes almost as much as me working in software" fantasy.
I've also had a front row seat to "just learn JavaScript" go from great career advice to joke in the span of time it'd take you to finish a trade apprenticeship.
"AI will kill white collar, those people should just go into trades, they can become plumbers".
Great idea, except that's not how supply/demand works.
AI didn't create the need for more toilets.
