I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
I am pointing out this last bit because of how shocked I was by my experience on stack overflow in the past 2 weeks, you can read about it more in this post i wrote here
I saw that post earlier, and it was a copy-paste of a Stack Overflow blog post with two sentences at the end saying that you don't think anything has changed since it was written. That's a valid perspective, but you haven't talked about your experience over the last two weeks. I think it would be great if you could share what prompted you to revisit that SO piece?
The tl;dr of what I like is the honest attempt to be welcoming and accepting of everyone, and the minimal gamification and in-your-face stats.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
