Not So Stupid

Joel is wrong when he says that you should pick a safe language (Java, C#, PHP or maybe python) if “someone is going to get fired”.

He almost got it right: You should go with a safe language if you’re afraid of being fired for picking the wrong language.

And in fact, in that case, I can’t understand why would you pick PHP or python. VisualBasic, sure, but using any other scripting language is probably a career-killing.
