All true but there is still quite a bit of inefficiency involved if you need a team that is both proficient in deploying & running Linux infrastructure tools as well as Windows servers. And given that this discussion is taking place in

Many of us have .NET experience, really like C# but have sensible reasons for not recommending it. A Microsoft only stack is nowhere near as flexible as Linux and if you were to reach Stack Overflow's levels of traffic you'll not

This is one of the reasons I use Go in favour of pretty much anything running on the JVM stack. I don't have to change my workflow at all between working in Python, C, Go and JS. I can use vim for all of the above and none of them forc

Or that it hasn't fixed the warts it has. I use Ruby rarely enough to really, really miss explicit imports. I guess it's not a problem if you use it all the time and magically know what's in the global namespace at any given time but it's a
