    And they use phrases like "No one uses {some nice stuff like C++} anymore".

    @bdhobare I hate those phrases, like when some PHP or js developer, which by the way I also use, thinks that my C# code is rubbish, just by being in C#

    I have done a lot of node. It's quite fun and giggles. But it's also scary. There are bower and npm, but every other day a new "best and most efficient" package manager pops up. There are a million billion 1 line dependencies that huge projects depend on. Many docs tend to suck arse. Javascript is the worst. No strong typing. It's too easy for noobs to just do shit and fuck up immensely, because they took a javascript for beginners class and now feel like pros. This is not to say there are some great js/node programmers, because there are. It's just too easy for everyone to get into without much clue about what they're equally doing. Also, the "nobody uses X" anymore is the worst phrase! /rant

    I feel there is too much of a long term cost in many of these technologies that are easy to get started in. Not that traditional tech shouldn't learn from the strong points, just that lack of typing for instance might be refreshing in the beginning but might become a real problem in a large project. Go feels like the best overall backend solution right now. Very traditional in many ways, with some refreshing ideas making it fun to work with.

    Ruby is from the early 90s and rails is pretty mature at this point. I think it's past its hipster phase

    most startups trying to prove the idea and sell it. they don't have a plan for the long term run. and the relationship between development cost and operational cost is disproportional
