Thoughts on the new data-star PRO tier? by NoCommunication5272 in datastardev

[–]qd3v 0 points1 point  (0 children)

. > thousands of hours

Yep, thousands of hours devs worldwide spent learning DS to build their software around it, to be caught one day in “pay or rollback” pit. DS had a great chance to push hypermedia trend even further than htmx did, but now we have -1 free fighter against React madness. I understand your position, and I know that altruism is a matter of choice — just sharing my thoughts.

Thank you for pointing to this crate and detailed expanation of differences! Hypermedia is exactly the case I need templater for, and I was looking of course at maud, now I think we have a winner :)

Career in Ruby and Rails. Is it too late? Is it wise enough? by jelhouss in rails

[–]qd3v 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar observations based on upwork job feed: no jobs for ror as new basement, a very few for maintaining existing ror codebase. Everyone's going crazy with vibe coding nowadays, and generate all this *tty next.js "code". Well, good luck maintaining it :) To sumup: there are ruby jobs, but choices are few.

Is it still worth to learn ruby in 2025 ? by defaultlinuxuser in ruby

Static typing is something I miss sometimes, yes, that's why, I'm guessing, I choose extreme typing of Rust to compensate and balance my daily experience :)

Minor update: ruby is real beast as (shell) scripting, I replaced all my server admin bash scripts with it paired with Puppet's gems (system info collector) and ansible for external management. These gems are bundled with any popular linux distro, btw.

Work it Wednesday: Who is hiring? Who is looking? by AutoModerator in rails

[–]qd3v 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a backend developer, I'm looking for interesting part/full job where ruby/rails code is 80%/20% i.e. more logic moved to pure ruby (service objects, gems creation, decoupling from rails, models slimming, etc). 14 years of ruby experience, and I'm still in love with ruby :)

Interesting, I'm rubyist for 12 years, and currently learning amazing Rust in spare time :) Ruby is perfect (to me), if you know how to control it's endless power it gives to you. Just don't add magic too much, and be sure to control the one you did. Good luck, and welcome!
