This is pretty smart for the left guy. He's usually down at the level of "HTML is a programming language" or "What's a programming language?".

That said, the first one of those isn't mutually exclusive with what he says in the meme.

It mostly reflects my own story. From a beginner enthusiast of multiple "cool" languages (Scala was all the rage back then), through considering myself more "mature" and thinking about business priorities, ending at understanding that using a good programing language is a business priority.

If the team works with a language they enjoy, they will be happier (and more productive). Doesn't even matter if the code is written by humans or machines.

What do you mean by “monad has no business value”? /s
