Think some of the idea is that more popular languages socialize costs better.
Performance, tooling, documentation, expressiveness, etc. are usually worse.
But you've got lots of public examples and libraries which can be hard to beat.
At least from the standpoint of getting "certain things" done.
"certain things" probably means programs which aren't novel implementation wise.

>but the more popular your language choice is the more scriptkiddies you’re gonna get applying for your company
Which is what they want because it drives down the wages.

this is pretty much the whole reason why the entire tech industry is fucking dogshit but most programmers are too classcucked to realize this and fall for all the meritocratic lies around why we're getting worse at solving problems with software despite hardware constraints being almost a non-issue these days for getting any actual work done.

managerbrain is a cancer that stifles innovation, kills creativity, and focuses on short-term thinking that doesn't go past the next "quarter", or worse the next "two week sprint" in tech companies.

There is no longer any real innovation happening in tech spaces. The period from 2000-2015 gave us robust online banking, smartphones, cloud infra, online maps with real-time navigation, safer cab rides, etc. The stuff after that has been hype grifts galore, self-driving cars, block chain, AI chatbots, now some are starting to make a noise about "quantum" comupting. The industry pushed the people making the products out and now it's all marketers, "quarterly earnings call" charlatans, ideas guys, thought leaders and so on.

Could work just as well with losers if you prefer that word.
Don't buy the food-stamps "just make them not hungry enough."
Not sure the best way things are learned and overcome however.

That this is a very affordable form of low "learning".
And not only because it's cheap itself, but because it lowers "earned" highs too.

This is all pretty cold, but, get the impression that since 2008 there's been a variety of attempts to figure out what to do with hardware performance which is eccentrically sufficient for consumers. Part of this is scaling, so you can have more tabs open, more pixels, and higher fidelity graphics etc. Another part is making thinks which couldn't have existed before 2008. The addition of production driverless cars and the transition from ELIZA-style chatbots to LLM are examples of this, but have only shown up recently. These are potential major changes in the means of production. Wonder if there was a twelve to fifteen year lull though. Probably something to do with innovation cycles or something.

Turns out you have to be told!

The same messages paid for again … to listen.
Literally and deeply as well as critically.
Some tips are not to buy things that hurt you.
And to receive payment in necessities! (learning)
But really there's not trick to get out and it's stupid!
