"Don't do what's popular on Twitter" in good life advice in general.

[iamworstgamer]

step 1: get good at technology
step 2: apply to job
step 3: get rejected due to less than 5+ years of experience
step 4: install react

If you want a pension, learn C#. Government jobs all seem to be C#.

As a java engineer all i see is recruiting for python and nodejs. And pyrhon engineers telling me they're thinking if switching to java cuz all they see is recruiting for java

[OneTest]

I look at a job, I see Python, I learn python, after I learnt, job is not there anymore. I look at another job, I see C#, I learn C#, I learnt it, job is not there anymore. I shall continue this until I'm the jack of all trades, master of nothing.

[StellyITA]

That's true! I've been looking for an internship for 2 years now, Java and C# are the languages with more job postings. In some countries you'll still find a lot of PHP too

We have 13 massive applications all running Java backends even some geospatial apps. Java is a beast, it’s not as fun as fancy js frameworks, but man is it popular. And there’s nothing in Java that can go wrong that ain’t already documented somewhere. Guess where my first job was before a Java place? A C# place. They truly are the languages of the majority of apps.

Rule of thumb is: The technologies that have the fewest hype around them are the ones that have the best job security. It's your pick on what kind of "hard" to go for.

Bro is posting shorts in live streaming 💀

[elijahmalewo]

Props to the guy who told me to learn java 2 years ago, in my first job interview was do you know spring boot.
Yeah you're hired

[fuzzy-]

Found a job posting looking for a fresh college graduate.
Their requirements were 3+ years frontend react, knows .NET, Java, can maintain entire stack, answer customer support, etc.

They basically slapped everything in there and wanted a one-do-all IT guy lmao. Probably added fresh graduate so they dont have to pay high

"Give people what they want to get money from them."
Seems intuitive

[crftr-com]

Enterprise software doesn't care about developer experience. Get accustomed to being uncomfortable.

1. have 10+ years of experience
2. Get rejected for not having enough experience
3. Adjust resume to include relevant experience
4. Get rejected because the positions are look for more junior people
5. Cry into the abyss and try to figure out Java

[marcelosyd]

Depends. Front only will ask react, next and vue in most offers. Back will ask go, Java and py. Full stack will ask both

[zac]

I'm determined to never deal with React and JS unless there's absolutely no other options.

[alecbg]

Everyone on youtube seems to hate java. Modern java's great!

[eugenevakulenko]

That’s how I got the job during pandemic. I saw a spike at c# jobs in my country and decided that my best chances are to learn it instead of js or python, that had lots of competition. I’ve been working with c# for 4 years now and ended up liking it more than Node and Python. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do if you don’t want to be homeless😁

[borndestroyu]

Been doing c++ and c# for 15 years now. May have been some Java involved.
I never heard of other programming languages.

[miguelantonioguerra]

You know java, you get a job doing java and you might end up using little to no java. Still learn what they are looking for and then adapt
