It is also notable how doctors can get away with not following the progress in their own field.
A programmer who would ignore the developments since 2007 would be unusable.
- thelittleone 4y agoThis 500x.
- viraptor 4y ago"their field" is a fuzzy concept. For example for a GP their field is "medicine". By definition they need to know just enough about everything to direct you to a specialist when needed, but it's simply impossible to be up to date with everything. On the other hand, there's a huge number of consultants for enterprises which still write .net 4 like it's 2008 and they're both happy and productive. Unless they're sent to a training, why bother learning new stuff?
- inglor_cz 4y agoTrue, but a GP shouldn't declare death sentences on their relatives if he is out of his depth in oncology.

- Viliam1234 4y agoLucky you! When I see some recent projects using Spring, there is almost no Java code there, mostly very long YML files. The name remains the same, but it is a completely different programming language, if it may still be called so.
