I only suggested that developers should be more cognizant of web tools than the average internet user. The "stereotype" of tech people being more familiar with tech is true irregardless of how obnoxious you may find it.

Can you give me a legitimate reason why someone creating developer software finds medium easier than say something like github pages?

I would appreciate this point if it wasn't for the fact that a lot of actual developers use this platform. It doesn't make sense for people knowledgeable about tech to not spend 10 minutes searching for a better blogging tool.

I've begun to subconsciously avoid any links to a medium post regardless of the content. I don't know if there are other people who do this, but it definitely is indicative of how bad the website has become.

I've been using Go over python for a couple months now and so far it has been incredibly effective. I never really liked Python's syntax so it's nice to go back to something c-ish.
Re:How we spent $30k in Firebase in less than 72 hours on Wednesday August 01, 2018 @09:39PM (#17668643)
Well, since Firebase has lowered the barrier of entry with their easy setups, I think it is justified to expect at least some developers to make mistakes.

I don't blame Firebase at all though -- great product.

Atleast it's okay though.
