    Is that different from what is happening already? A lot of people won't adopt a language/technology unless it has a huge repository of answers on StackOverflow, mature tooling, and…

    > the inefficacy of the popular forms of 'brainstorming' compared to the more painful forms that work Interesting, what's your recommended resource for learning more about this?

    Programming with string templates, in a highly complex and footgun-rich markup language, is one of the things I find most offputting about the DevOps ecosystem.

    Ask HN: Easiest and hardest concurrency models to use correctly?

    There's a lot of options for concurrency. In Python alone, you can use threads with shared memory, threads with queues, processes with queues, concurrent.futures, asyncio, trio, or…

    Both JS and PHP are rather footgun-rich languages; have you tried Python, Java, Kotlin, or C#?

    I'm a lot less experienced than you, but since you're collecting ideas, I'll give my opinion. For me personally, the biggest improvements that could be made to C aren't about advan…

    Interesting choice of window manager. Has anyone here used PaperWM and can comment on how its "scrollable" interface compares to more traditional tiling WMs like i3?

    Sure, it's different from the old way, but I don't think "unintuitive" is the right word for that. systemd forced people to change their habits so that it could be more intuitive. …
