I can't believe I just read all this crap from these whining beaches. It's like Slashdot gulped a keg of Red Bull while doing an 8-Ball off a teenage hookers ass listening to Nickelback's entire catalog on shuffle repeat.
I guess I don't understand the hate, since I still use Rails almost daily. I work efficiently, my clients pay me well, and because I have enough experience I guess, I don't ever run up against the platform's "performance issues". Granted, I am not building applications that have millions of users per month. Neither are most of the rest of these people. I guess it all boils down to- Haters gonna hate.
On to the questions. I'm going to ask a few, because so many other people threw their questions away already:
1. What's next for Rails 6 (or whatever is beyond Rails 5)? 2. I do notice that people are still talking about performance like it's 2005, and a few programmers I respect have already moved on to Elixir or React. Have you played around with either? Any good ideas we can steal? Better integration opportunities? 3. I feel like I'm always finding out about better "Rails Way" design patterns too late. For instance, when you explained your controllers setup/philosophy on Full Stack Radio. That was a situation where I'd kind of been doing that, but because I never really labeled it or gave it enough thought, it was more like I sometimes got lucky and made good decisions. Sometimes I didn't. Where, in the Rails community, is a resource to pick up on those more advanced patterns? Real world solutions that aren't necessarily a rails default, but are a good idea that will make life easier for developers at all stages of their careers?
Thanks for doing this. I don't know why you would have picked Slashdot for a Q&A though. It's like Reddit's garbage disposal in here.
Holy Cow (Score:3)
