Perhaps the title should be “err on the side of boring technologies”, although I don’t even agree with that. The right technologies for a project are the ones you deem to be right, given appropriate consideration of many factors. Your project may really need to use all beta release software, cause maybe it just does.

The unknown unknowns. Thus _maybe_ choosing a trendy set of technologies might indicate that the exercise of balance and consideration you were commenting and that I do agree with 100%, has not been as honest as possible.
