If the interviewer wants to talk about one stack, that's likely the one you'll be using for the job, or the one they have experience with. And please don't tell them "but I can get up to speed in no time in any stack", nobody wants to pay a freelancer to get up to speed.

- gregjor 3y agoI do every day. SQL hasn’t changed much in 20 years. Nor has Unix/Linux. The most widely used, if not fetishized, web programming stacks are the same today as five or ten years ago: Java, C#, PHP. All of the churn happens in the JS front end space, where you find little actual innovation and very few actual full stack developers.
