  • MCU, smartphone CPU or other limited computational resources.
    • Only some simple setups is ok.
  • Ultra-low-latency constraints (~10 mcs)
    • Better craft it by hand or get fired, because you will maintain it.
  • Your coders can't lift dumbbells with power of thought.
    • If they don't understand what they do - you fail.
    • Good coders can make mistake limited times. Bad coders can do it unlimited times.
  • "We have 3rdparty vendor software 1e6 $ cost. We must use it"
    • Ok. Eat. It's your own now.
  • You know it less than 1 month. You want use it for >1k$/month profit project.
    • Learn first
  • This is your first programming language. Just don't. It's not a simpliest thing.
  • You need make task that can be done in less than 1 hour. Just take other programming language (JavaScript, CoffeeScript).
  • You don't understand pipelines. Seriously, SS has average type inference and very strict operator set. Use TypeScript, CoffeeScript, LiveScript or IcedCoffeeScript instead, they have more pros.
  • You doesn't have at least fullHD screen. 40-52" 4k+ is recommended.
  • Probably you should not use vi/vim + SS. Notepad++/sublime is ok with coffeescript highlight plugin.
