I have a great career idea for you. I’m only going to tell you the idea if you really do it.

It’s easy – it won’t take you any longer than it would to write the first draft of your resume. Want to do it? :)

Which programming language and which framework should I use?

Frameworks like Ruby on Rails are great because they make it easy to write code – in a way that makes sense for the problem of websites.

Programming languages are great because they make it easy to write code – in a way that makes it easier for us to understand.

In the end though, all of these abstractions were not written with your problem in mind, but a generic, off-the-shelf problem that you don’t actually have.

Thus, write with any language you want. But write in a way that’s appropriate to your problem, and write in a way that’s appropriate to you.

An update: While a doberman/chihuahua mix is certainly possible, apparently not all same-species crosses are viable.
