- rootlocus 9y agoI said I doubt it, not that it's impossible. And by professionally I meant you've read most of the canon books about these languages, you can explain what happens under the hood for any piece of code and you can debug, profile and write high quality idiomatic code in each and every language you listed. And now, as per GP post "But, I know 6 other languages, I can learn one more..." you should have no problem learning C++ on the job after being hired for a senior C++ position.
- psyc 9y agoThat's a somewhat unrealistic definition of 'professionally' but it depends on exactly what level of language-lawyering prowess you have in mind. Regardless, your original statement strikes me as a strange assertion to make to a diverse group of strangers. For many people with long careers, reaching this level in 6 languages is practically inevitable. I'm only 20 years in, and already up to 4 or 5, due solely to experience at professional day-jobs.
- dang 9y agoCan you please stop? It's a pointless flamewar and going around in circles.
