For me, perfect example why not move to SPA in 2017 is Freshbooks, I'm their active user and found that their new version(introduced recently) is slow, initial load slow (very), transitions between tabs is slow etc. Personally I dont see the reason they moved to SPA (they using Ember framework which I heard very optimized in compare other frameworks(not libraries as React))

Point me please discussion where talking "programming experience does not matter". It's completely stupid. Who in normal mind talking about this? Of course programming language experience does not matter but programming experience..

Yes, there are many opportunities for you as indie developer. first is app store ofcource, but please read first stories from iphonedevsdk.com/forum business section about 6 months development and more then $5000 spending and $100 profit at end. Second is flash games market, you can get up to $20k per game from sponsors if you are experienced game developer or about $500 if you are unknown. Third is android market, same as ios market but less money(successful game apps more ads oriented then apps in apple marketplace)

Rails is not MVC 15 years ago

agree. Last time when I thought about MVC was interview years ago(hope nobody today ask same questions). As Rails developer with 4 years experience, I'm not care now about these things, I'm care about product.

I cant understand what this post doing here(HN)?

For me, as ex freelancer, all clear: $10-20 for so called programmer from Asia(China, India) $20-$30 for russian or east European programmer with CS degree $60 for programmer from England >$60 US PS: prices for Ruby devs, it can be different for iOS or Java

Macbook Pro over then 3 years but plan buy iMac(performance is better for me, I want keep open: RubyMine(for ror projects), AppCode(for iOS)(both java based apps) + mysql server + postgres server, also chrome with 10-20 tabs + firefox(for development I like firebug) + skype etc)

I also dont see problem there. I think it's SEO problem of StackOverflow
