For us, every .NET upgrade since .NET 5 has gone surprisingly smoothly and reduced CPU/RAM usage by 10–15%.

We were even able to downgrade our cloud servers to smaller instances, literally.

I wish .NET was more popular among startups, if only C# could get rid of the "enterpisey" stigma.

Start-ups should strongly consider F#.

It's a force multiplier when you have a small team of strong developers.

Seeing that any startup is more likely than not to fail, why would I work for a company that is using a niche technology that isn’t going to be in demand when I look for my n+1 job?

How important is being a language expert in x vs all your other skills as a Software Engineer? My opinion is that "higher level" skills (like system design/architecture, product thinking/planning etc.) are so much more important than language minutia (outside of specialized fields).

If a business is turning away candidates because they "don't have n years of experience in x" that doesn't sound like a very dynamic/interesting place to work, it sounds like a code monkey job. AI is going to eat code monkey jobs.
