- Java applet: no
- flash: gay
- silverlight: fuck no, and fuck microsoft, and fuck netflix for using it
- php: I hope not
- perl: over my dead body
- python: lovely little language, but I just can't stomach semantic whitespace
- .NET (VB or C#) - no, microsoft tech still sucks. There are rumors of them supporting linux for real soon, but I can't imagine a company who is not microsoft actually using this bullshit
So..I guess its going to be Javascript[jquery?]/Html5/CSS on the frontend and either ruby or java on the backend. Maybe this is why I procrastinate so much; java containers are super expensive (and suck, in the case of Heroku) and ruby typically means ruby on rails which means code generation, which is a poor design. However, if I limit the backend to just providing APIs that the javascript app calls, then we might be ok.
