This is a bad take. Save your snark for somewhere else.
I didn’t say it was the wrong choice or even a bad choice, just that I was surprised. Ruby and jquery are certainly modern technologies.
My surprise was more a factor that maybe I had too high of an impression of LS (and I’m still a fan!). The blogs/tweets I’ve seen from afar made it seem more like a rigorous “be a working software engineer” curriculum. If their candidates are ONLY suited for a node/react stack that seems like a pretty dangerous/inflexible hire. TBF this was for folks who haven’t graduated yet, so maybe they go wider on their final few months. As a person who hires engineers, I don’t want someone who only knows one stack. I want smart people who can solve problems in any stack that gets thrown at them (even if they’re junior and I need to hold their hands a bit).
