Sorry to be blunt but this is nonsense, languages and stacks are just tools.
When I was working on banking systems the idea of using dynamic typed language would have been insane. Now that I’m in a two man’s shop working on low traffic web app I’m happily using Rails for the CRUD work. And if tomorrow I were to work on a public high traffic real-time app like Discord I would do it in Elixir. There is no such thing as your stack.
- joelbluminator 7y agoUsually there's the 1-2 tools you're most comfortable with, unless you're a true generalist. Most people can't be incredible in Rails/Django/Spring/Node/.NET at the same time, you have to pick 1-2 things you excel at. You can be efficient in 5 tools at the same time, but not an expert (for most people. some people are great at everything they put their hands on).
