Ask HN: Which programming languages to learn in 2020 for an experienced dev?
3 by Antoninus | 3 comments on Hacker News. I've been a JS Dev for the past 5 years specializing in Node and recently adding React with GraphQL as the data layer in the last few years. It seems there are less fullstack jobs and even less Node jobs available which leaves me the option of writing frontend code full-time which I don't want to do. I want spend the next handful of years specializing in a language with longevity in the industry the same way I did with JS. My choices are Rust, Go or Python. What do you recommend for an experienced developer to learn in 2020? I'm open to suggestion.

Show HN: World's Biggest Crossword App
2 by jmbrook | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hi, we (two man company) have just release what we think is the world's biggest mobile crossword (single grid of 103x103) for iOS and Android. It plays pretty well all the way down to iPhone 5 (a wee bit small to be honest!). Looking for any feedback especially around any novel (read cheap) ideas on the marketing/promotion front. The retention on the app is awesome once people get started, but as it is a single grid the life time value is pretty limited. I think part of the appeal is the fact you can finish it so it is a mixed pleasing. Cheers, James ps - we are UK based, but we have made quite a lot of effort to avoid / callout where it is a UK term/spelling. https://ift.tt/2uqBXmD
