I mean, I upvoted the story because Netflix is pretty well-known for being a high-intensity dev environment where people are regularly PIP'd and dismissed if their engineering output doesn't measure up - of all the companies which do the eye-rolling claim of "we only hire 10x engineers", Netflix is one of the only ones for which it kinda holds water. And yet, despite this, their stack is boring old Java+Spring. That seems like a useful lesson for all the people who demand that high-performance teams must use the New Shiny.
