Let me spell it out. A junior dev is 1 or 2 years of experience away from a senior dev for python.
For C++ it takes probably 4 or 5 years.
This is not nonsense. This is real.
- blsapologist42 4y agoBeing a "senior dev" is a lot more than just language familiarity.
- HervalFreire 4y agoIf we're just talking about the python stack arguably there's not much else on top of it. You get the extra stuff through osmosis in the same 1 - 2 years. The applications for python aren't wide ranging enough to include much else unless you're thinking about data science and ML stuff.
- int_19h 4y agoI guess it depends on your definition of "senior", but I don't see why language choice should affect it this much, given that much of what makes seniors senior is not knowledge of specific tech, but experience with software engineering as a process.
