Agreed. It's hard to believe given how much press all the trendy companies and startups get, but an awful lot of the web development world is nowhere near as flashy and modern as people online like to think it is.
Makes me want to write an article which basically compares and contrasts:
A: What the technical press, Reddit, Hacker News, etc thinks software development and web development is like
versus
B: What it's like for developers outside of the internet trend bubble
- pjmlp 8y agoTo given an example of B, porting a VB.NET application that converts CSV files for their data measurments, done by someone with some VB knowledge thanks to their VBA macros, into C# due to single language policy for internal applications. Migrating an aging custom Web site into a CMS platform like Liferay.
