Once again I hoped for a good discussion of a good point, but I got a bad discussion of an even worse point.

Hi there,

just this month we hit a point, at which we were confident enough to release this and now we're even more confident, so we put it on HackerNews.

If you care about our techstack: the backend is built using rails, em-websocket and postgres, while the Frontend relies on angular with some Backbone leftovers. Messaging is done via vanilla websockets and protobuf.

Every kind of feedback is welcome, however harsh. Thanks!

Protip: If 80% of your agument is an analogy, it's probably not a very good argument.

I think the opposite is true, IDEs help you find out what is really going on, by showing you (depending on the language) which module is used where and giving you the option to directly navigate to that source. That in turn confronts the beginner with the code and conventions of other (more experienced) coders. So yeah, IDEs rock. Also debugging...
