I just want to know what I will be doing and they say Java, go, JavaScript, Ruby, Python, or rust and I am like. I don't do compilers.

I don’t do compilers

? What do you mean

[–] letsgo@lemm.ee 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

They mean they'd rather debug at runtime, preferably in production, with minimal instrumentation.

[–] locuester@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 days ago

No that’s not what they meant. See their response.

Writing that programming languages is the thing you will be working on. Not what application you will be doing because you're just a tool, not human being.

Ah ok I understand. Still it’s nice to know the preferred and used languages in a company.

Yeah but that's what you will be using not what you will be doing.
