Ask HN: In terms of employability python or ruby?

1 pointsby dawilsteralmost 13 years ago
Hi,<p>I'm currently a studying computer science and hoping to enter the workforce very soon, at the moment I've only coded with java and php.<p>But in terms of employability php looks very crowded and I much like the idea of startups utilizing the latest web technologies.<p>Anyway if I were to have the best chance of being employed when I finish uni should I learn python or rails?<p>Thanks a lot.

In my neck of the woods (north eastern america), more startups are using ruby than python for their core products.<p>That being said, I havent seen many ableminded hackers turned away from a startup. Fast learning is usually more of an asset than early/mid-level knowledge in a field.<p>In the end, the best way to find out would be to check out a local meetup in your area, and talk to some startups there.
