Of course it’s always been easier to find talent when working in more popular languages. That’s the big risk you take when you choose the road less traveled.

- AstroBen 1y agoeasier to find people, not talent. Some tiny niche languages have a very high proportion of talented developers
- mock-possum 1y agoSorry I meant ‘talent’ as slang for a worker qualified to fill a roll with minimal training, I.e. a hire via a ‘talent agency’ or head hunter
- a96 1y agoEasier to find CV's with a word. In reality, just about any programmer should be able and willing to pick up a language when needed. Unless you have hyperspecific needs with some massive framework, a pattern matching HR is not a good way to find programmers.
