Elock1: You are not a tribe...its what the British devised to enslave your mind. Tribesmen are primitive people. Uk has four major tribes: Scottish, English, Welsh and Irish - there are at least 15 other tribes like celtic and druid but you will never hear them call themselves tribes. As for this thread let's focus on the subject of the thread which is software development. 5 Likes |

In startups, its easier to get more experience and job role. In big coys, u can be a junior Dev for 4-5 years because the manpower is sufficient over there. But in startups where they are saving cost, one person can handle multiple roles. For example, when I joined a big Nigerian bank years back, I was battling with customers in the banking hall while my mates in smaller banks were trading currencies and booking off shore transactions. |

Karleb: Exactly, imagine some companies still using .net framework in 2021. When there are cool and hot frameworks like Django, Node, Laravel etc. Open-source is making giant waves yet those old companies are still spending hundreds of millions for Adobe, Microsoft and others. |

GeoAfrikana: It's no easy, not even thinkable to change your codebase. Imagine rewriting the whole software. They may on the other hand, build new products and service platforms using newer technologies. |

That’s were they can gain valuable experience and exposure. Multinationals already have a small internal software department with experienced hands majorly for routine maintenance work and avarage internal projects or upgrades. Special projects they get external contract developers to team up. |

Karleb:You don’t understand the context do you? C, C++ and Java are static language and are reserved now to serious applications. The scope changed doesn’t mean this serious language went into silence. Before now even simple project were built with hefty languages such as C, C# and it’s likes and at then people were just so bugged down and disturbed with how fierce it works and looks. Then there came increase and high rise of prototyping and weakly typed language which gave leverage to people without proper understanding of coding to make their apps and boom that is where it all started. Meanwhile the spot reserved for static languages can’t be taken. So in conclusion, there is a rise in less hardware demanding applications. And new language shined. Never has Java, c, c++ and it’s static brother failed in the advancement race. 1 Like |

philcz: CSTRR: No one is asking anyone to change. In fact, many companies are still using Python 2. The OP was asking why many developers are crazy about startups and I provided an answer to that. A typical young (web) Developer starts their career with PHP, python and/or JavaScript. So, it's only normal for them to search for companies that use those technologies which are usually startups. Many developers learn .NET and other old frameworks after joining a company. I have examples. 1 Like |

stanliwise: Maybe I didn't properly pass out my message, but I never implied that C and its brothers were obsolete. Besides, many of this popular languages were built on C. Take for example, we now have Kotlin which is now the official Android application programming language. Do you know how many Java programmers ditched Java for kotlin? If you are saying people who write Javascript, PHP et al don't have proper knowledge of coding, that is not a right thing to say. 3 Likes |

Karleb:I am a LAMP stack developer so why would I say such. All I am saying is most of this new languages are made specifically for a kind of programming e.g PHP is specially made for web and JS for mobile and web. Which older languages where just too big and cumbersome that it cut across too many aspect of coding that many part where just fundamental object and no big framework nor library to abstract many things we see today |

Simple answer: Cash out. A startup normally gives out lots of shares to employees with the hope that when they go public or sell, employees can make lots of money $$$$. |
