    Imo it’s bc it’s the new kid on the block. Yes it’s 10 years old but barely becoming common use in production and government mandates are only speeding that up. In actuality it’s a great language and has been hyped for a few years by people who actually use it. Python went through the same thing in the 2010s where devs really tried clowning on it, now it’s used everywhere.








  • Instances should be divided more into groups of Communities. So they theoretically don’t grow infinitely, only as high as the “group” if communities grows. Ex. An NBA or Sports instance containing /c/NBA /c/NFL /c/NHL and all the related teams. Or similar to the programming.dev instance all being programming and development. While these would grow it would grow at a much slower rate than everything in one instance and be much more maintainable.

    Of course this is somewhat of a social construct so everyone has to be in agreement with how to handle this and move accordingly, which won’t happen.

    Long-term long-term for federation there has to be a distributed computing solution that allows the users to contribute to hosting.


  • I recently hired into a data analytics team

    I work in Data Engineering and have spent most my time on analytics teams. They don’t have a SWE/CS background and generally because of that don’t follow any good programming practices. In my experience style guides are hard to get them to follow properly even if you set up SQLFluff for them., I can barely make them see the advantage of not committing directly to main (at least we’re using git). It’s very frustrating.
