I feel like it's not just ageism - software development itself is so big now that it's fractured to the point that there are now strongly opinionated camps that are "stuck in their ways and unable to change - even when faced with evidence to the contrary. "
For example, certain web dev crowds that love (in my very biased opinion) really slow, bloated and/or over complicated tooling to do simple things. But only because they've never ventured outside of their ecosystem to the great beyond and "that's how everyone does it".
- sroussey 2y agoThe nice thing about the JS ecosystem is there there is no “how everyone does it”. It’s as if you had Ruby where Rails was only 10% of the market. Some people say it’s the problem, but I like the egalitarian aspect of it.
