interesting question. Maybe because react mainly developed by facebook for facebook and they sorta let us use it?

maybe just the degree to which community participated in development.

maybe react today is where rails was 5-10 years ago in its life. give another 10 years assuming react is still massively used framework, it'll face similar issue. I don't know, interesting question.

don't want to sound harsh, but articles like this are the reason I don't read much. Maybe it's because English is my second language, so it's on me, but why such epic journey to seemingly say so little. I only read half of it, couldn't go through more. Interesting topic but to me personally, delivery is quite difficult.

Im my professional career I've never worked with dataset large enough where pagination would become difficult to solve. I wonder where are the limits of SQL, Postgres. How do I learn to extract most of rdbms?

> But they're out now and the story is over

some say they are, some say they aren't. Is this in fact true?

> WSB doesn't hold the full capitalization of GME

does anybody know how much does wsb hold approximately? very rough number would still be interesting to know.

what is the truth though? As someone who only knows about stocks from 'big short' film and 5min video on youtube and wsb thread. I genuinely curious what are the ways this could play out.

is there a deadline on short sellers to close their positions? what is reasonable limit for the stock to go to? what happens if hypothetically nobody of wsb would sell their stocks?

was looking for this sort of comment to confirm my bias. I'm trying to figure out what is it about how I feel about reflex: the idea that even with this you still have to reach for js libs or am I just being lazy. I guess a little bit of both maybe.

But it's true, even though our app is pretty straight forward crud, we still need things like autocomplete, drag and drop, tabs, modals, form validation etc. Just having js being js and ruby being ruby seems easier for me to parse and work with.

> 92. You have vanishingly little political influence and every thought you spend on politics will probably come to nothing. Consider building things instead, or at least going for a walk.

I don't get it. should I not care?

what you describing now becomes low paid work.

1) make a course 2) constantly put in hours supporting it.

in this regard with can take it further and call ourselves slaves of our instincts and desires. (eating, breading etc) in which case word slave loses meaning.

I disagree. slavery is real absolutely immoral thing, while working for money is more about law of energy conservation, something transforms in something else, hence very reasonable and natural.

Ask HN: What strategy to adopt for monolithic Rails on AWS in 2021?

amoitnga — Sun, 20 Sep 2020 22:01:14 +0000

Our devops is currently managed by 3rd party consutancy and we're looking to take over over the next 6 months. I got AWS associate level certifications and will take over devops.

App is Rails monolith running on few EC2 with Capistrano used for deploys. RDS, redis etc, usual suspects, all hosted in AWS.

This migration may be a chance to setup things differently.

What architecture would you advise? what are the pros and cons of ElasticBeanstalk vs ECS vs doing the way we're doing it now.

Any articles/resources would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
