Older devs, after seeing enough technology fads, are much more sensitive to bullshit. Which makes them a bit sarcastic WRT any new fad. Not a desirable trait from the employer's perspective :)
- raarts 8y agoI've been an employer for a long time and would prefer a critical thinker over a fad-of-the-day lemming any day.
- pc86 8y agoSarcasm in general is not a desirable trait. You can explain the pros and cons of different technology choices without being sarcastic. A green developer who wants to rewrite everything is $LANGUAGE is just as bad as the self-important greybeard rolling his eyes and scoffing at anything that isn't $OTHER_LANGUAGE.
