I agree, I feel all the time I spended learning Django, Scala/Play, Go, Haskell, etc. is worthless because startups only hire Rails and iOS guys anyways.

- pan69 14y agoIsn't Rails just web-tier stuff? I'm sure any decent startup is pretty much technology agnostic when it comes to developing the core services (or at least they should be). I'm sure that if you can write Python, Scala, Go and Haskell that Ruby shouldn't be much of an issue and Rails is something you can probably pick up in a week or two of fiddling around with it.
- thirsteh 14y agoYes.
- dysoco 14y agoActually I was mostly joking, learning C and Haskell has greatly increased my hability to write code, even if it's other language. And I'm not in the laboral world yet, so I have plenty of time to get used to Rails or any other technology, but it's right that at least of 75% of Startups are using Rails.
