Reflex – Web apps in pure Python
My major complain here is that, as far as being a web framework there is precious little information here about the framework. How does this framework scale with multiple requests? What concurrency strategy is it using (threads, processes, actors, etc?). Is this opinionated (it doesn't seem so but it also doesn't say it isn't either). How does this work with popular libraries x,y,z. The full docs have a little bit more information, but not a ton. But mostly there are some cute toy examples and "built in python" and thats about it.
Lets compare this with for example play https://www.playframework.com/ I know from this that it built on Akka, its stateless, aims for predictable resource consumption, has non-blocking io, etc. There is a ton of really important information on what does this web framework actually do that is really important when you are making a choice of a framework.
I have no idea how good this framework is, but besides a few toy examples, I can't see anything that makes me thing "wow this is great I need to use this".

What is scala's modern Web API framework?

what library/framework should I use for backend development?
However do note, Play should be perfectly usable as well, and it's still maintained by the community: https://github.com/playframework/playframework/issues/11649

Why I selected Elixir and Phoenix as my main stack
In university I learned a bit of Java, so maybe I could use it professionally I guess?. There were many options to choose from. DropWizard, Spark, Play Framework. But the more documented one in the internet I found was Springboot, besides there were some courses in spanish and some friends that knew something about Springboot, so I give it a chance.

Pleasant to use Scala libraries
The most popular nowadays are - I guess - akka-http and http4s. You can also use Play if you don't want to start from scratch but prefer a framework-based approach.

Features of Project Loom incorporated in Java 21
Not sure about now but a few years back the company I worked for was heavily vested in Finagle [1] using Future pools. I'm sure virtual threads would only enhance this framework. Also, Spring and it's reactive webflux would probably benefit as well [2].

Twitter (re)Releases Recommendation Algorithm on GitHub
Don't really see how "enterprise scala" has anything to do with this, scala is meant to be parallelized , that's like it's whole thing with akka / actors / twitter's finagle (https://twitter.github.io/finagle/)

Introduction to Bazel for Scala developers
Thank you. I only took a quick look, but this looks like a goldmine of info if you are interested in using bazel to build a scala monorepo: https://github.com/twitter/finagle

Elon: "[Twitter's] recommendation algorithm was using absolute block count, rather than percentile block count, causing accounts with many followers to be dumped, even if blocks were only 0.1% of followers."
And the engineering team are far from imbeciles because they built one of the worlds' best cache and RPC microservice components. As well as the fact that up until Musk took over the website was running just fine (other than your issue with product decisions).
-
Pretty incredible thread where Elon confuses how GraphQL works, thinks the Android client itself is making one thousand requests, and then publicly fires an employee who corrects him.
Bro it's their fucking project lolhttps://twitter.github.io/finagle/
You can even see it mentioned in Finagle's project, which is what Twitter uses https://twitter.github.io/finagle/

Elon Musk publicly feuding with and firing his developers on Twitter
RPC generally means server side calls, probably this https://twitter.github.io/finagle/, and XHR is not RPC.

You worked on it? Why is it slow then?
Twitter is a Scala shop and specifically uses Finagle - a homegrown RPC framework based on Apache Thrift. https://twitter.github.io/finagle/

At what point does an unstable company become a risk in your tech stack? (more Twitter fallout)
We use Twitter Finagle. Coupled with some other bits, we are running our company's most critical services on top of it. The announcement that 50% of Twitter's workforce is being let go has us seriously concerned that our core infrastructure will be running on unmaintained software.
