Don't get "married" to a single programming language.

It’s a little late to write a new article (it’s almost midnight), but I felt the need to tell you a little about some thoughts I’ve had these last few days. And it surprises me that there are such limited-minded people, I am talking of course about those who dedicate unconditional and unhealthy love to a specific programming language, so much so that they marry (so to speak) with that language and never learn new technologies. I think they have not yet understood that this entire great world of Software Engineering is changing, it is dynamic and we must be the same (the ones chosen to live in that world).

But don’t get me wrong, the above doesn’t mean you can’t have a favorite programming language; You know, the one where you feel like a magician coding code. I would be a liar if I told you that I don’t have a language that I like to program in in most cases. The problem is when you close yourself off and you no longer want to learn more, you don’t want to update yourself and you stagnate. You become nothing more nor less than a fanboy, also believe me when I tell you that those who say:

With the language ‘X’ it is enough for me and I have plenty

Sooner or later they will have to start learning other technologies on their own, because if they don’t they will be frozen in a cryogenics chamber for who knows how long, or they will simply become extinct. And it is logical, those who do not adapt tend to disappear (Darwinism? haha).

Anyway, to finish with a little advice, become an expert in your favorite language, but also learn other languages. At least write code in them, get to know them and then let yourself fall into the void, the only bad thing that can happen is that you acquire new knowledge. You can, for example, be an expert in Python/Django, but also know C#/.NET and be learning PHP/Laravel in your free time.

Well, that’s all I wanted to tell you, I hope this article has opened your horizons a little more and if you have any comments you can leave them below, see you next time. See you soon.
