To be blunt, you are a terrible hiring manager if your red flag is “they haven’t got an up-to-date opinion about the shitty-history language that I’m personally into”.
This just sounds like PHP Stockholm syndrome with extra steps.
- ofrzeta 3y agoI guess it depends on how it's communicated. If someone tells me he doesn't like PHP because of this and that reason, that's fine. Getting wound up about some specific programming language (feature) or any tech still raises a red flag for me. But then I might be terrible as well :)
- cjbgkagh 3y agoI can be pretty confident that if a language is not from the ML family I’m not going to like it for all of the reasons it’s not a ML language.

- cardanome 3y agoOne of the reasons why I love working on PHP jobs is that I get to avoid "passionate" programmers. It's fine to be excited about programming but those that build their whole identity around it are just super obnoxious and not fun to work with.
- cutler 3y agoThousands at Railsconf or Clojure Conj would disagree, I'm sure but these languages are kinda special.
- ofrzeta 3y agoI am totally passionate about removing complexity from apps and stacks.
