> Rarely anyone "needs to scale." Agree, and I say it as an Erlang full-time dev. Chances are you don't need 9 9s reliability and super scalability. I've heard and seen cases of companies rewriting stuff unnecessarily due to some incompetent people following latest fads. "Oh I read Python has the GIL so we need to switch to Go. Saw on HN everyone is switching" -- cue years wasted in rewriting and destabilizing a solid usable code base. |
