    How the hell do you find Perl devs these days? Recruiting at retirement homes?

    If you build a project in a dead language you end up having to migrate to something to mass market like Java just so anyone else can work on it.

    Shit man, I love Ruby but it would be professional malpractice to start a new project on Rails.

      Man, I entered my company two years ago for cobol and basic development. The only way to continue is to spend a lot to train new devs.
