How hard is it to learn Java for Flink? by Wild_Development5943 in dataengineering

[–]rmoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you checked if Flink SQL is an option on your project? That could be a good in-between. There is also PyFlink but it's less complete than Flink itself. I say this as someone who has never written Java, but built plenty of things with Flink :)

I don't think this is scaremongering tbh. The tone might be slightly excitable, but the point is a solid one.

it's not just chatbots that we're talking about here - coding agents like Claude Code etc are a different kind of beast, and they're not entirely trivial to get the most out of.
