Developer Smackdown

" summary

Live stage debate building a voting app prototype (suggested Ruby or Rust, QR-code live voting, event stream vs monolith) and demoing audience results; arguments give concrete tradeoffs and a few surprising tallies — tabs won in the crowd, 36 to 21 solo for pairing vs solo — plus riffs on Emacs vs Vim, REST vs GraphQL, trunk vs branches, microservices vs monoliths. Fast, example-driven back-and-forth with implementation sketches and live votes rather than deep benchmarks.
