</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>There is a major problem with that approach. The reason it's easier to find a PHP developer is because the language is cheap. It's really easy to learn, and tons of people learn it to get a job. The PHP knowledge pool is very shallow though. That means almost PHP developers are very shitty developers that stopped learning because PHP doesn't really have a very proficient level to it.<br>
<br></div><div class="gmail_quote">So companies that figure "hey, there are more PHP developers than Perl/Python/Ruby - I'll get programmers in those!" end up with really really horribly shitty code that it's impossible for them to actually get beyond of. I've worked at a lot of these companies. It's horrible. Really horrible.<br>
<br>Don't be duped by number of developers overall. Think about "available developers", "developer knowledge and expertise" and "ability to provide a good product". Who gives a shit if there are less developers if I can still find enough?<br>
