I know that Java is somewhat doomed unless Oracle decide to invest for it to catch up to other languages like C#. I like Ruby well enough but i can’t seem to get use to rails. It’s a personal thing and might not event be that rational… While i like C# a lot, i kind of am still not too thrill by the idea of working with MS techno. Actually i kind of like the idea of mono but it leaves you hanging with infrastructure management which sucks.
Therefore i want to invest in Python and more specifically with Django. I really feel that it’s the way to go today in any significant project. The language is mature, nice and easy to read. It is strictly typed which i like and very Open. Its maturity means that there is a library for just about anything i will need to do.
In Python, the framework that always pup up is Django. It is MVC based which is pretty much the norm nowadays and the support for it seems to be great. Looking at the news group there does not seem to much problems and the reply are quickly forthcoming. It also comes with a nice ORM but hopefully i will not need it.
This bring me to the no RDBMS part. I think that using a database for persistence has now ran it’s course and we now have the tools to do away with it or use it has its intended to be used(reporting). For all of these reasons and since i have no concrete achievement using these technologies i am willing to work the first 80 hours of any 3 months or more contract for which i would be hire in such a project. So there you go!
Interested ?
