Ask HN: Where is the programming language ladder of awareness essay?

5 pointsby blunteabout 3 years ago
Some years ago there was an essay which described a developer&#x27;s perspective as they learned more languages.<p>It was represented as a ladder, whereby more experienced developers could see their level and the levels (languages) below them.<p>I thought it was Paul Graham, but now I cannot find it.<p>Does anyone know the essay I speak of and can offer a link to it?
