Do you like working with Beta Technologies
It is strange thing, but it happens today with
Tamer at
SilverKey, he was interviewing a developer, and that was a part of the interview.
-
Tamer: Do you like working with Beta technologies, such as ATLAS, WinFX (dotnet 3.0) ... etc?
*
The guy: No.
-
Tamer: Why?!!
*
The guy: Because I don't want to be a tester for other companies !!!!!
When Tamer told me this, I was really surprised.
I can't see his point at all, because in my (and most people) point, that if you have time and enough support to work with something new, that will give you an advance over your competitors if you used it before them, so Why Not?
but with his mind set, I have to wait until the new thing becomes old and used, then I can start learning and producing stuff that will be considered Normal.
Yes, working with beta tools and technologies is risky, but still this how you find your daily work interesting and challenging.
So, at the end, This is his opinion and my opinion about working with new technologies while it is still in beta days,
so What is Your Opinion????
