Most developers can't actually code, once the motor skills has been assumed it is nothing but brute intelligence.. and then you can become a lead/architect... It takes 10 years to become good enough. I feel pretty safe ;)

We used it for a production project which I inherited. Honestly I'm not a bit fan of anything Orm like, as such there is some magic, I believe out of the box it will literally just create tables and keys for you. For what it is, it&#x2

C#, JavaScript, Python. Honestly, i can't see them going anywhere, especially Python. Might as well learn Clojure, you have ten years.. C seems to not be going anywhere ever. Will there be that many new technologies??
