I'd like to add some context for those not aware. This is a page in Thoughtworks' "Technology Radar". Thoughtworks is a global US-based software agency that likes to market themselves as thought leaders in the world of software. They're not super well known in startup land but my impression is that in enterprisy environments they're considered "very good". One way they maintain this image of thought leadership is employing famous people such as Martin Fowler. Another way is by regularly publishing a document called "Technology Radar" which is in opinionated list of technologies that their tech leadership believes ought to be used, explored, avoided, etc. They explicitly don't position it as a bunch of truths they hold to be absolute - it's just the opinion of a few senior tech folks at Thoughtworks who had a fun weekend in a holiday house together or something like that. I guess they had a disappointing Zoom call this time around. It's generally a bit more conservative than HN, you often only see stuff listed under "Assess" that has been commonplace in HN articles for multiple years. This makes sense, it's targeted at enterprises. At the same time, it's highly opinionated and they're not afraid to take positions that are not a match with the current hype cycle. I really like it for this latter quality, and I encourage you to explore this edition further than just their recommendation to not always jump to NodeJS by default (which seems to be a bit of a straw man to me, anyway). Be sure to click all four "quadrants" (right top of the page), IMO the linked one, "Platforms", is the least interesting one.
