Yep, In my domain only Go/Rust are useful. The opinionated framework culture never fits the bill. I think Rails/Laravel/Django are great when you have a beaten path for relational DB crud.


doesn't this point to a bigger problem that there are two ways of doing the same thing?


no. it is different thing. container-agnostic zero value vs struct init.


multiple ways of doing something isn't inherently bad.

For example, if you want to set a variable to the number of seconds in seven hours, you could just set the variable to 25200, or you could set it to 60 * 60 * 7. The expanded version might be clearer in the code context, but in the end they do exactly the same thing.


Your math equation turned the asterisks into italics.


Whoops, fixed. Thanks for the note


hold on, why would you have 7 hours?

dont you mean a week? 60 x 60 x 24 x 7 ?

or at lest 8 hours?

7 hours is just odd


The goal was to pick an arbitrary number that wasn't well known. There was no intention behind the specific value chosen.


Love rails, hate ruby. Hope one day DHH moves it to clojure or gleam.
