#92Is it actually always a good idea to keep yourself up-to-date with the hottest tech stacks? We picked up the first angular, because of the “keep up mantra”. That turned out to be a complete waste of resources when the second version released. I’m not saying that it can’t be valuable, but these days we build 70% of our stuff with python, Django for web with a minimal amount of JS because it turned out our clients actu…
> When I look at the job market in my region of Denmark, almost every job is for JAVA, C# or PHP. No-one is hiring for Rust, graphql, go or any of the other hipster languages / frameworks.
Udviklings- og Forenklingsstyrelsen has a huge project written in Clojure, ClojureScript and R and they're hiring all the time.

#93A related question that I’ve been thinking about: What technologies/languages/tools/stacks can I learn now, that will still be relevant and useful in 2025, or 2030?

I agree with you and also want to increase my computer network knowledge. Any resources you're planning to start with?
Can't go wrong with Beej's Network Programming guide! https://beej.us/guide/bgnet/ Also, the ZeroMQ Guide has some fun networking concepts. http://zguide.zeromq.org/page:all
Fantastic resources, thank you!

#95SwiftUI. I think Apple will put a lot of effort into it to be on the same level with UIKit. SwiftUI makes developing UI easier because it is declarative just like React Native and it takes less time to build your typical CRUD app on the apple platform.
It's a heap of absolute nonsense at the moment though.

#96I am planning to focus on Go and developing a deep understanding of computer networking. I think with cloud, IOT, increasing importance of cybersecurity, understanding the nitty gritty of networks is going to be increasingly important.

I have been working through the Kurose + Ross textbook, and will be trying to implement some of the concepts/exercises in the book in Go. I've also been reading through the networking sections of the Unix + Linux System Administrators Handbook

Beej's guide is fantastic. I found it from the suggested reading on one of the OverTheWire wargames. I think of it as the true sequel to K&R.

#98Agree with other meta-comments here on the question itself. FWIW some other random biased suggestions:
* Kubernetes * Rust * Terraform

#99why not something that doesn't seem to relate to your backend work at all, e.g. Dennis Yurichev's Assembler book will take you all of 2020 to finish :-) (aka "Reverse Engineering for Beginners"): https://beginners.re/RE4B-EN.pdf (see also HN discussion https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21640669 ) Erlang and BEAM is incredibly cool concept: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FonRzASOkZE I also really like Nim: https:/…
How do you recommend someone keep up on new (or existing) RFC’s?
see https://www.rfc-editor.org/retrieve/ for individual document maturity levels (for this you might want to monitor "Experimental" and "Proposed Standard")

#100Learn everything about vanilla JavaScript really well. Just vanilla.
