This year, I’m learning Ruby. Does that mean my team is moving to Ruby? Probably not, but it does mean I’m learning Ruby this year because I believe in sharpening the saw. You might be too busy sawing to sharpen, but I’d encourage you - no matter what brand or type of saw you use - to remember that there are other folks out there cutting wood successfully with a different kind of saw. Maybe they know something that you don’t.
