@rolandkuhn@raulraja @paul_snively What *you* can do today - not anytime soon. As far as what you were doing 20 years ago when you had much less experience - you’ll get a call in the next 12-24 months… For some other jobs, e.g. Marketing Copywriter, these jobs have already but disappeared by now.
@bindureddy Happens on a daily basis across hundred of companies in SV… Bottom line is that BoDs exist for a reason, i.e. governance and oversight meaning “adult supervision” in plain language. There were no “adults” on that board which is frightening.
@baldram@jdegoes@GolemCloud Reminds me of non-volatile memory technology: all of a sudden it it very easy to implement continuations but surprisingly hard to provide a clean stoppage/breakage logic…
@GolemCloud No support for Python, Java, Scala or Kotlin. All docs and examples are in Rust. In-memory state management - a uniue value prop - isn’t described anywhere (at least I couldn’t find it). No ‘admin/monitor/observe’ of any kind… But overall idea is on the money!
@jefielding@jdeamattson Twice in my life I've pitched to top-level VC firms in the valley (in person) when partners on the other side were... nonchalantly eating lunch. Go figure - socially unaware behavior can be found everywhere...
@adelfaure As a fellow ASCII-based gamedev I 100% support this. Yes, this is niche and avant-garde but this is beautifully retro. Remember Flower game from PS2 time… how it was unorthodox and a fresh take on the gamedev years back…
@scalajos@subtlechemism@jdegoes I have never met anyone who came to Scala b/c of effects support. You first need to dive into Scala and… suffer before you realize the need for effects management in some of your code. For many Scala developer it takes years to learn the usage of Try/Either mechanics properly…
@jdegoes As someone who's dealt with these issues for decade(s) as CEO/CTO - John's right. Marketing can sometime provide cover in a short term - but the product in general is what defines a long term success or otherwise.
@jdegoes 100% agree. As someone who's used Scala since 2008 - the non-stop changes and weak IDE support to this day is hurting adoption for sure. Still - (Scala3) is the most productive PL I have ever used...
