About JohnKacz

I'm an application developer that does a little front-end work as well. Currently working for a small university's Educational Technology department and doing freelance work on the side.

I mainly do Ruby on Rails work but I've also dabbled in Node.js and Google App Engine (Python). I'm currently learning Elm and Elixir.

    I think GP is implying newly created accounts[0] may not be real community input but perhaps some sort of astroturfing/manipulation? [0] - https://github.com/minimaxir/hacker-news-…

    I saw someone recently post the idea that Java/Scala/F# almost functioned as LTS/Stable/Dev in reference to how these languages were sharing impact.

    Not as long as the hiatus[0] several years back. I hadn't realized Jack had started posting again since then. Glad to rediscover this. [0] - https://onethingwell.org/post/148042678…

    Wow, this is fantastic and I just realized Github has topics. Anyone have recommendations of other really well done complete tutorials on https://github.com/topics/tutorial ?
