I don't buy this idea that everyone has to learn the latest framework or tool to stay competitive. Competitiveness comes from being able to make good work, repeatedly. 'Knowing the right framework' means very little, a good developer will just pick it up on the job anyway. I'd much sooner hire someone with a track record of building good things than one who just happens to 'know' whatever tool or feature we're using. I feel zero pressure to learn every shiny new thing that comes along. If a new tool/feature seems to be gaining traction or generating a lot of discussion, then yeah I'll read up on it, but I mean reading for an hour or less. It's not a big deal to keep up.
