Indeed, and presumably given DHH’s philosophy, 37signals intends to be in business for a very long time.
How will they ensure a stable pipeline of experienced RoR engineers?
Sidenote - IMO Django and RoR are unmatched in developer productivity - all modern alternatives have mind-numbing levels of boilerplate and bike shedding.
- haskellandchill 4y ago37signals will never have trouble hiring, they are so well known and respected.
- yunohn 4y agoMy point is that the supply of RoR engineers is limited and dwindling. It’s not sustainable long term. Maybe 37Signals thinks otherwise…
- haskellandchill 4y agoYou’re wrong, Rails is still very much alive. Also the idea of x language developer is outdated, as long as you know the language and framework and have done more than nothing with it there’s more flexibility these days especially for senior engineers.
- yunohn 4y agoRails may very much be alive, but this thread began because strong RoR experience is mandatory for this role. This isn’t a generic discussion.
