@avibryant: first thing I thought when I saw your tweet: 10 years ago Smalltalk and Common Lisp were boring; Python and PHP were new + hip -
@rcoder both Python and PHP are in their 20s now. (Yes, we’re getting old). -
@avibryant: 10 years old is pretty new for a programming language IMHO but I totally hear you on the "old" part

@avibryant@fulhack Me - boring technology all the way. No Spark, Hadoop, node.js, NoSQL or Docker. Would like to be able to Haskell though. -
@zygmuntzajac@avibryant what's your stack? Out of curiosity -
@fulhack@avibryant I'm not at liberty to discuss that. Just kidding, for web apps Flask+MySQL+nginx, maybe some Intercal for tougher tasks.
