    You said "that Django still lacks". Django no longer lacks CSP and background tasks. Regarding my edit, you need to differentiate between different types of jobs. Sending an email …

    CSP is literally in this release, and background workers are intentionally not part of Django because you usually want to offload tasks to other nodes so your CPU can keep serving …

    This "memory shortage" is not about AI companies needing main memory (which you plug into mainboards), but manufacturers are shifting their production capacities to other types of …

    I don't know about this exact metrics, but the Backblaze hard drive report is always a very good read when thinking about failure rates. Maybe check it out and see if you'll get yo…

    But "outdated code" isn't inherently bad, is it? v1 code is still supported by the stdlib and it still does its job, at least until Go 2.x drops.

    I can't speak for the other frameworks, but with Django this would have not been a problem at all. In Django, most "batteries included" features really just are 1st party plugins, …

    Well, 1978 was a long time ago and environmental concerns weren't a big thing back then. RWE had all rights to do what they did, even the Green party acknowledged that when the Ham…

    The core reason is (imo) that it's simply not possible to provide a Django admin equivalent in other frameworks because they lack the functionality to do so. The basic dependencies…
