Re: Adding a command for commanders
Ive hired programmers (to help maintain internet systems) and I refuse to hire experts in one language. Like a C++ expert or a java expert. The systems are an amazing collection of code from just about any language you can name. I will hire someone with 3 "dead" langauges over an expert in one.
Why? Because if something breaks its often something simple like a path that changed. Someone who knows multiple languages tends to be willing to look at it and give us a 10 minute fix where the expert wants to spend 2 weeks rewriting it into the language he knows (and often giving us something that only he can maintain). There ARE times when a specific language is needed. We always outsourced those.
So dont knock other languages. They are still in use even if new things dont tend to get written in it. And even a "dead" language that you never use can give you the wider view that can be helpful.
