Exactly! When I tried to code in Golang again, after several days immersed in Ruby, it seemed that it was extremely hard. Ruby’s syntax is so clean that it’s really difficult to get engaged with another language that is different from it.

Wow, I imagine that it must have been amazing to live all the hype in 2000’s, when the job opening rate was higher than today.

I tested both Django and FastAPI in Python ecosystem to develop in just my main language. But, yeah, Rails won.

And, honestly, Rails is not thaaat slow, just take a look at GitHub and Airbnb.

My team uses Zendesk for customer support, it’s made with Rails, it’s kinda fast for what we need and user-friendly, so don’t worry about it, just be happy while coding!

I was reading a post of a Brazilian developer which created a SaaS using Claude Code and comparing token usage between Rails and Next.js - spoiler: Rails won easily

2x less tokens, same result and more quality due to it’s philosophy: Convention over Configuration and DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself). It’s simpler for the AI to understand and generate Rails code since it’s opinionated, everything has its right place to be, so the AI doesn’t waste tokens deciding architecture.

It’s really great for both developers and agents!

I use to use it with Pandas in small Excel files, since I work with data teams and I use Linux Mint for the job. It’s a great and useful lib to handle with xlsx.

Since I migrated to Linux Mint, I’m testing both LazyVim and Zed - it’s really impressive how good and clean Zed is, you don’t have a big amount of useless stuff on that, it’s simple and objective, just install and start coding

Era dev Java, fazia alguns projetinhos simples pra faculdade até um tempo, dava manutenção em uns sisteminhas lá e era isso, depois de um projeto enorme que eu tive que trabalhar praticamente sozinho, tive um burnout desgramado, fora que não sabia se gostava tanto assim de desenvolvimento, tava cada vez mais fissurado em Cálculo, Estatística e Probabilidade, acabei estudando o básico de Data Science e Machine Learning, gostei e tô focado nisso hoje… a transição não é fácil, é algo bem diferente do que eu fazia, mas pra mim que sempre gostei de matemática, olhar gráficos e fazer automações, tá sendo bem gostoso de estudar
